Description Christopher Brown 2006-10-25 23:04:45 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20061011 Fedora/1.5.0.7-7.fc6 Firefox/1.5.0.7

Description of problem:
The following error occurs when I attempted to install a package, admittedly from an external repository - ATRPMS.

Component: Software Manager
Summary: TBa4e373c6 pirut:141:_searchPackageSelected:AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'replace'

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/pirut", line 141, in _searchPackageSelected
    desc = desc.replace("\n\n", "\x00")
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'replace'

Local variables in innermost frame:
buffer: <gtk.TextBuffer object (GtkTextBuffer) at 0x96e77fc>
plist: <PirutPackageList object (pirut+PackageList+PirutPackageList) at 0x974c054>
self: <__main__.PackageManager object at 0x90dd4ac>
po: mythnews - 0.20-138.fc6.at.i386
desc: None


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.2.5-1

How reproducible:
Didn't try


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run pirut/Software Manager
2. Select various packages from list having searched for "mythtv"
3. Select mythnews checkbox, app crashes

Actual Results:
App crashes with debug option and traceback

Expected Results:
Software selected and installed according to design

Additional info:
Fresh install of Fedora Core 6 on IBM/Lenovo T42 with ATrpms repo being the only additional repository enabled. Previous attempt to install full mythtv package had quit as mplayer is not part of any of these repositories.

Comment 1 Jeremy Katz 2006-10-30 16:40:52 UTC
Fixed and will be in a post fc6 update (version will be 1.2.7 or later) -- the
package should really have a description, though.

Comment 2 Fedora Update System 2006-11-06 20:37:35 UTC
pirut-1.2.7-1.fc6 has been pushed for fc6, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 3 Fedora Update System 2006-11-10 18:20:23 UTC
pirut-1.2.8-1.fc6 has been pushed for fc6, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2006-11-16 23:12:25 UTC
pirut-1.2.8-1.fc6 has been pushed for fc6, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.
