Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

When run in noninteractive mode the following crash occurs:
Traceback:
 Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/bin/ubiquity", line 468, in <module>
     main(oem_config)
   File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/bin/ubiquity", line 453, in main
     install(args[0], query=options.query)
   File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/bin/ubiquity", line 239, in install
     wizard = ui.Wizard(distro)
   File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/noninteractive.py", line 63, in __init__
     mod.ui = mod.ui_class(mod.controller)
 TypeError: __init__() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)

This is due to the change to the partman PageNoninteractive class constructor:

I independently fixed this: I chose to fix the underlying PageBase class and made the PageKde class call its constructor too. That patch is in lp:~mterry/ubiquity/fix-partman-noninter-crash.

I fixed this independently (and differently, I think more robustly) before noticing your bug report. Thanks anyway!

This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.2.1

---------------
ubiquity (2.2.1) lucid; urgency=low

  * KDE frontend:
    - Honour ubiquity/show_alpha_warning.
  * Noninteractive frontend:
    - Fix up plugin problems in the partman component (LP: #539342).
  * Only fall through to the noninteractive frontend in automatic mode.
