When testing iprutils2.4.2 in Ubuntu14.10, saw another issue with wrong IOA physical location code. The following patch fixed the second issue in iprtuils 2.4.2.

I just installed the iprutils_2.4.4-1_ppc64el.deb on my test. I tried concurrent GUI and I didn't see the failure.

Thanks,

Hello bugproxy, or anyone else affected,

Accepted iprutils into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iprutils/2.4.0-1ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

The fix for this bug has been awaiting testing feedback in the -proposed repository for trusty for more than 90 days. Please test this fix and update the bug appropriately with the results. In the event that the fix for this bug is still not verified 15 days from now, the package will be removed from the -proposed repository.

Bug already tested in 2014-10-04 as stated in comment #4. Unfortunately the tag was not removed. Removing now.
