Hello Steve, or anyone else affected, Accepted ubuntu-advantage-tools into impish-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage- tools/27.4.2~21.10.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- impish to verification-done-impish. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-impish. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Description changed: [Original bug description] I noticed this on an upgrade in focal: Setting up ubuntu-advantage-tools (27.4.1~20.04.1) ... Installing new version of config file /etc/ubuntu-advantage/uaclient.conf ... Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 10, in <module> KeyError: 'status' Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 10, in <module> KeyError: 'status' It's clearly nonfatal, but we shouldn't see python tracebacks in upgrade logs. [Impact] This releases will guarantee that unattached users installing ubuntu-advantage-tools in an architecture that is different from i386 and amd64 will no longer see the KeyError issue. Additionally, this will guarantee that the postinst flow where this error is triggered will be finished. However, this should not impact users that saw this bug, since the function was cleaning up old apt sources for esm-infra and esm-apps. However, since the user is unattached, that cleanup should have already happened if those service were once enabled. - [Test Case] 1.Launch an ubuntu machine: - $ lxc launch ubuntu-daily:xenial dev-x + $ lxc launch ubuntu-daily:xenial dev-x 2.
