Public bug reported: When testing the "Install (no Network) in Xubuntu Desktop amd64 in Noble Daily" on a QEMU virtual machine started with the command:
qemu-system-x86_64 -accel kvm -net none -hda xub2404Daily.img -cdrom noble-desktop-amd64.iso -cpu host -smp cores=4,threads=2 -m 4G -device qxl-vga,xres=1280,yres=720 -boot menu=on The install failed. I have attached the entire /var/log from the live system with the data. The most relevant log seems to be on the installer directory: Running command ['unshare', '--fork', '--pid', '--', 'chroot', '/target', 'apt-get', '--quiet', '--assume-yes', '--option=Dpkg::options::=--force-unsafe-io', '--option=Dpkg::Options::=--force-confold', 'install', '--download-only', 'grub-pc'] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False) Reading package lists... Building dependency tree... Reading state information... Package grub-pc is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source However the following packages replace it: grub-common E: Package 'grub-pc' has no installation candidate Running command ['udevadm', 'settle'] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False) TIMED subp(['udevadm', 'settle']): 0.020 Running command ['mount', '--make-private', '/target/sys'] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False) Running command ['umount', '/target/sys'] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False) Running command ['mount', '--make-private', '/target/run'] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False) Running command ['umount', '/target/run'] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False) Running command ['mount', '--make-private', '/target/proc'] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False) Running command ['umount', '/target/proc'] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False) Running command ['mount', '--make-private', '/target/dev'] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False) Running command ['umount', '/target/dev'] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False) finish: cmd-install/stage-curthooks/builtin/cmd-curthooks: FAIL: Installing packages on target system: ['grub-pc'] ** Affects: subiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: noble ** Attachment added: "The entire /var/log from the live system after the error" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2057989/+attachment/5756106/+files/varLogInstallerError.tar.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2057989 Title: Unable to install noble-daily (20240315) because it can't find grub-pc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/subiquity/+bug/2057989/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
