Bug Description

Hello,

The installation of today's (20100918) daily Studio spin fails at the "Select and install software" step and presents a red screen asking me to retry or skip, even if I uncheck all of the four package choices (2d3d, audio, dssi, video).
Skipping the step results in a failed install (it seems to finish but drops the user to a BusyBox prompt).

Here is the exact error message appearing in tty4:
in-target: foomatic-db-compressed-ppds : Conflicts : foomatic-db but 20100915-0ubuntu2 is to be installed
                                         Conflicts : foomatic-db-hpijs but 20100915-0ubuntu2 is to be installed

This seems to be UbuntuStudio specific: the ubuntu-alternate iso of the same day installs without a hitch.

I tested 20100918/32bit builds, and Janne Jokitalo confirmed the issue with the 20100917/amd64 build.

Hi Luke, hi everybody.

The installation still fails. I tested today's ISO (yes, it includes the new ubustu-meta 0.74: browsing inside the ISO I confirm I have $iso/pool/universe/u/ubuntustudio-meta/ubuntustudio-*_0.74_i386.deb )
Here is the slightly exact error message appearing in tty4:
in-target: foomatic-db-compressed-ppds : Conflicts : foomatic-db but 20100915-0ubuntu3 is to be installed
                                         Conflicts : foomatic-db-hpijs but 20100915-0ubuntu2 is to be installed
