swtpm-libs fails to install on jammy

[popey]

Expected behaviour

Upgraded to jammy and re-enabled the PPA post-upgrade. Did a dist-upgrade to get latest quickemu.

Expected it to update/install okay.

Actual behaviour

One of the dependencies from the ppa failed to install correctly.

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

1. Upgrade Kubuntu from Impish to Jammy

3. Update packages

I removed and reinstalled swtpm to get it to pull in the right version.

This keeps happening. Every time I deb-get upgrade it makes my swtpm libs go wonky.

swtpm: Could not open UnixIO socket: Permission denied

Tried forcing a downgrade using Synaptic. Just goes round in loops. If I downgrade one bit, it throws errors and re-upgrades things somewhere else.

Also, why am I seeing four versions of quickemu showing. While, if I uninstall three, it takes out four.

Terminal output quickemu: `

• BOOT: EFI (Windows), OVMF (/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE_4M.fd), SecureBoot (off).

  • Disk: windows-11/disk.qcow2 (128G) Just created, booting from windows-11/Win11_EnglishInternational_x64v1.iso

  • Boot ISO: windows-11/Win11_EnglishInternational_x64v1.iso

  • CD-ROM: windows-11/virtio-win.iso

  • Display: SDL, qxl-vga, GL (on), VirGL (off)

  • ssh: On host: ssh user@localhost -p 22220

  • SPICE: On host: spicy --title "windows-11" --port 5930 --spice-shared-dir /home/xxx/Public

  • WebDAV: On guest: dav://localhost:9843/

  • TPM: windows-11/windows-11.swtpm-sock (21305)

  • swtpm: Could not open UnixIO socket: Permission denied

  • Process: Starting windows-11.conf as windows-11 (21307)

  • `

All a bit puzzling.

[TuxVinyards]

Update:

I couldn't get Windows 11 to initiate its build at all. But then I noticed quickemu (or quickgui?) had built the .conf with secure boot set to 'off' (which is a bit at odds with tpm). So, once I had set that to 'on' the famous Windows CD message with the dot trail appeared ...... and I was able to press a key and set it all going.

I am wondering if the message about a lack of UnixIO socket on boot up was just a red herring. It is still showing but maybe swtpm is just making a complaint that it can't connect to anything, that's all. And it can't connect because Windows is not booted.

I entered my standard Microsoft account login, I was recognized & it all updated. I now have Windows 11 running happily. The settings panel says the system is 'activated' too.

On the four quickemu entry thing, I am putting this down to Synaptic. It only happens when I select the 'origins' tab. Only one entry shows normally.

Good work Wimpy (@flexiondotorg)

This issue is resolved. It was a bug in thw swtpm packaging in the Ubuntu archive which since been fixed.
