This bug was fixed in the package jockey - 0.6-0ubuntu1
---------------
jockey (0.6-0ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low
[ Alberto Milone ]
* data/handlers/nvidia.py:
- Re-enable nvidia-96 now that it's compatible with xserver 1.9.
(LP: #626974).
[ Martin Pitt ]
* New upstream release 0.6:
- Add support and test case for reading modaliases from package headers.
- Put back "Additional Drivers" progress window title. Thanks Bilal
Akhtar! (LP: #323815)
- jockey/detection.py, get_hardware(): Disable printer detection.
cupshelpers.getDevices() is excruciatingly slow (about 15 seconds), and
jockey is not normally used directly to install printer drivers.
Instead, system-config-printer picks up new printers, and calls jockey
with the device ID, so jockey does not need to detect printers by
itself.
- jockey-kde: Use runtime .ui loading instead of pykdeuic4; the latter
just keeps breaking.
- gtk/jockey-gtk.ui: Drop obsolete has_separator property; Explicitly set
topmost GtkVBox fill property to True, as the default changed in GTK 3.0
(GNOME #634592)
- Various test suite fixes.
* debian/control: Drop now obsolete python-{qt4,kde}* build dependencies.
* debian/jockey-kde.install: Install the KDE *.ui files.
* jockey/oslib.py, has_repositories(): Greatly speed up (5 seconds →
negligible) by calling "apt-cache policy" instead of creating an
apt.Cache() object.
* Drop data/handlers/b43.py, our linux-firmware package ships the b43
firmware now. Also, the wl driver is generally a lot better.
* Add support for putting modalias definitions in driver package's
debian/control, so that we can replace the /usr/share/jockey/modaliases/*
lists with lookups in the package database (see blueprint
hardware-desktop-n-package-field-modaliases). With this we can drop the
foo-modaliases packages, and shipping third-party driver packages will
just work in Jockey without any further integration.
- Add debian/debhelper/dh_jockey: Debhelper program to produce a
${modaliases} substvar from scanning .ko files or
debian/packagename.modaliases.
- Add debian/debhelper/test_dh_jockey: Automatic test script for
dh_jockey.
- Add debian/debhelper/modaliases.pm: dh_auto sequencer for dh_modaliases.
- debian/control: Add dh-modaliases package.
- debian/dh-modaliases.install: Install dh_modaliases and modaliases.pm.
- debian/rules: Create manpage from dh_modaliases POD.
- jockey/oslib.py: Add apt implementation for package_header_modaliases().
- tests/oslib.py: Add test case for our package_header_modaliases()
implementation. This only really tests anything if there is at least one
package with a "Modaliases:" field in the local apt repository.
* jockey/oslib.py: Change deprecated apt.apt_pkg.Config.Set() to .set().
* debian/rules: Drop simple-patchsys.mk, we don't need it (patches are
inline, maintained in bzr).
