Description (last modified by )
Installoptionalpackage crashed when I typed
installoptionalpackage -f
in terminal to get a list of inatallable packages.
Steps to reproduce:
- In terminal type installoptionalpackage -f
- Press Enter.
This results in gdb and I have a back trace. I get similar crashes too when trying to install any application. If I don't click the button to show the gdb but OK instead, nothing gets installed. Here is an example:
installoptionalpackage -a -s SampleStudio /bin/installoptionalpackage: line 464: availablePackages[${pkg}]: bad array subscript ... no packages need to be installed. If you wish to re-install a package, run these two commands rm /boot/common/data/optional-packages/OptionalPackageNames open /boot/common/data/optional-packages/InstalledPackages and delete the line containing the package name(s). Not proceeding with installation. ~> rm /boot/common/data/optional-packages/OptionalPackageNames
When I rm /boot/common/data/optional-packages/OptionalPackageNames
it does not make any difference when I try again. Also doing this:
open /boot/common/data/optional-packages/InstalledPackages
and delete the line containing the package name(s),
the package name does not exist there anyway.
I was testing in hrev1alpha4-44597.

Please use a newer version when testing, hrev1alpha4-44597 is two weeks old and a lot has happened since then.

I tested with hrev1alpha4-44612 and was unable to reproduce. Still has other problem. Wont download everything in a list. This is another bug though.
I do not know how I attached two files. All I did was upload installoptionalpackages Crash.txt and immediately clicked it to view. After that clicked the back button on webpositive and there were two files attached. One of them can be deleted.
