Bug Description

[Impact]
Oneconf could have never worked on LinuxMint and other derivatives distro (those have to ship a file to get it working, what they didn't do), meaning that a crash will happen at each installation/removal of any package and when software-center launches. Those crashes are spamming errors.ubuntu.com, hence the fix is to ignore if the file for the current distro isn't shipped.

[Test case]
1. On a linuxmint, or elementary derived OS, install the version in precise-proposed
2. start software-center, go the install pane, check that you have no crash
3. run /usr/share/oneconf/oneconf-service --debug. Wait for 30 minutes, check that you have no crash, see no synchronization of data as well
4. run oneconf-query --list, check that you have no crash as well

[Regression potential]
No more synchronization and new crashes on the derived distribution (the code only touches if it can't import the file). Some new tests have been added to cover all those cases.

-----------

After install Elementary Desktop through the Elementary OS Daily PPA, I saw one GTK warning saying it couldn't find PIXMAP in /usr/shar/per15...

 I really don't know what happend.

 But I hope the information in the report is sufficient for you to be able to solve it.

 Thank you.

 Greats.

I see many crashes which show that oneconf-query crashed but don't notice any odd behaviour because of the crash, just too many crash dialogs in a row.

I'm experiencing same but I'm also mixing mint 13 repos and running in Cinnamon with MATE installed as well, so this may be related.

The change is intentional. RELEASE is used to track where the release has been done (on my quantal machine). The real target is the CODENAME, which is the desired one.

Hello Miguel, or anyone else affected,

Accepted oneconf into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

Sorry, I speak too fast, the regression spotted above is only on quantal, not in this version of precise-proposed :) Setting back to verification-needed.
