Public bug reported:
When there was a failure to handle an upgrade, apport_crash() gets
called to handle it and it calls apport_excepthook(), but it is missing
an argument in that call:
Error in sys.excepthook:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File
"/tmp/ubuntu-release-upgrader-rj__cqhy/DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeViewText.py",
line 138, in _handleException
apport_crash(type, value, tb)
File
"/tmp/ubuntu-release-upgrader-rj__cqhy/DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeApport.py", line
57, in apport_crash
apport_excepthook(type, value, tb)
TypeError: apport_excepthook() missing 1 required positional argument: 'exc_tb'
In my case, that was because I had Apt::Default-Release "noble"; in my
apt.conf. That issue is on me and I've fixed that misconfiguration.
However, this bug is about the second exception that was triggered when
trying to handle the first exception. It seems that apport_excepthook is
missing the binary argument. Maybe apport_crash() needs to be passing in
sys.argv[0] in DistUpgradeApport.py on it's call to
apport_excepthook()??
This crash can also be seen in another, recent bug report:
