Public bug reported: Binary package hint: epiphany-browser
Upon opening epiphany-browser (on a fresh install), epiphany opens a page that displays just this: File “/usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/locales/index-C.html” not found. Check the location of the file and try again. No default homepage is shown.. I have seen this in the latest epiphany-browser in Jaunty 9.04 (2.26.1-0ubuntu1), and the behavior is yet the same after a dist-upgrade to Karmic 9.10 (via update-manager), in epiphany-browser 2.26.1-0ubuntu3 If it matters, I have language-pack-en-base and language-pack-ar-base installed (via language-support-ar) prior to installing epiphany-browser (and prior to dist-upgrade via update-manager). Tried to find the origin of this missing file, and why epiphany-browser expects it to be there while it's not, but to no avail: # dpkg -L ubuntu-artwork /. /usr /usr/share /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-artwork /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-artwork/AUTHORS /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-artwork/copyright /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-artwork/changelog.gz /usr/share/icons /usr/share/icons/hicolor /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/distributor-logo.png /usr/share/gconf /usr/share/gconf/defaults /usr/share/gconf/defaults/16_ubuntu-artwork # find /usr/share -name index-C.html # dpkg -S index-C.html dpkg: *index-C.html* not found. Then I went to http://packages.ubuntu.com to search for it: In Jaunty: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=jaunty&arch=any&mode=exactfilename&searchon=contents&keywords=index-C.html In Karmic: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=karmic&arch=any&mode=exactfilename&searchon=contents&keywords=index-C.html However, the exact path epiphany-browser is looking for is simply not there... The only three index-C.html files found were in the following packages with the respective paths: /usr/share/edubuntu-artwork/home/locales/index-C.html edubuntu-artwork /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/locales-ubuntu/index-C.html ubuntu-docs /usr/share/xubuntu-docs/about/locales/index-C.html xubuntu-docs Again, epiphany-browser is looking for "/usr/share/ubuntu- artwork/home/locales/index-C.html", which no package provides with that given path... IFF epiphany-browser was instead looking for "/usr/share /ubuntu-artwork/home/locales-ubuntu/index-C.html", I would've suggested that package "ubuntu-docs" should be added to the list of dependencies for epiphany-browser... Of course, one could simply change the homepage to anything they like and won't be presented with this error again, unless they login as a newuser (or remove their ~/.gnome2/epiphany directory) and rerun epiphany, so this bug is trivial... ** Affects: epiphany-browser (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- File “/usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/locales/index-C.html” not found https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/428922 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
