Really final, because last time I hadn’t upgraded a server, and yesterday I did. It made me very sad indeed.
| Original complaint | Bug number | Fixed? | Remaining sadness level |
| apt crashes when upgrading courier-authlib | 64615 | No (there are a couple of potluck workarounds in the report) | High, because it took me about an hour and a half to hunt down the bug report and get apt and dpkg to dig themselves out of the mess they were in. |
| Transparent proxying in Squid is broken | 68818 | No (there’s a fix and workaround in the upstream report) | High, because it took Andrew about an hour to hunt down the bug report and jigger with the upstream workaround. Yes I know transparent proxying is evil, and someday someone will figure out a clean way to autodistribute proxy settings whenever I connect my laptop to a new network, but until then I use it. |
Network Manager can’t always tell the difference between wired and wireless cards |
59981 | Yes | Moderate, fixing this one has just made the intermittant appearances of 40125 more obvious, but somehow I find 40125 less irritiating. |
| Nevow is completely useless, won’t even import properly in Python | 61423 | No | Moderate. It turns out (and by it turns outI mean I figured out) you can install the Nevow 0.9 package from Debian unstable and it will work just great. But if Nevow isn’t supported even to the point of shipping an importable Python package, why is it still in Ubuntu’s main? This enhances my sadness level. |
If you type words into the address bar, the epiphany browser no longer treats them as search terms for Google, it instead treats them as a bad URL. |
56610 | No (patch is available) | Low, since I was able to build the fixed package as suggested in the report. |
When I attach my Canon IXUS 65 to my computer via USB, Import Photos reportsCould not claim the IO device. |
64146 | Yes, or at least they say so and it works for me, but people are still adding to the bug. | Low, and only because I keep getting the bug mail about it. |
X can’t always… work [actually, probably a bug in vbetool, causing rendering glitches on resume from suspend] |
60882 | Officially no, but I see it occur way less often now, maybe not at all since Edgy released. | Low, since I see it so seldom. It’s really annoying when it does pop up though. |
Aptitude… is now incredibly slow to resolve dependencies |
51893 | Yes | None |
GNOME reports that CPU scaling is not available on my machine |
Wasn’t one, I didn’t have powernowd installed | N/A | None |
