[Bug 1154906] Re: oem-config not installed after initial installation in oem install mode

A good friend of mine has reproduced this bug many times performing oem Ubuntu 12.04.2 installs for a charity run Earn-A-Computer program for 4th through 8th grade kids.  He reported it to me and asked for my help.  As such, I performed an oem Ubuntu 12.04.2 install for the sole purpose of reproducing this bug in order to make an apport bug report in the hopes of getting this bug fixed.  The only computer I had available for this install was this old Dell C610 Pentium III, 512 MG RAM laptop.  I do not dispute for a minute that it does have hardware problems (perhaps some bad blocks on the hard drive and/or a hard drive starting to fail.)

However, it is clear to me (especially since this bug has already been
experienced many times by others) that the bug is in no way whatsoever
related to the hardware problems of this old Dell P3 laptop.

Further, I was encouraged to see that this same bug had occurred a
little under a year ago in that the fix might already be known and be
relatively simple to implement the fix again.

Please consider this a valid bug report and please consider issuing a
fix.

Thank you very much.

Kind Regards.

Title:
  oem-config not installed after initial installation in oem install
  mode

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After an initial installation in OEM mode, oem-config (nor oem-config-
  gtk) are installed and "Prepare for Shipping" script launcher is not
  available.

  It seems that
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/984736  has
  reared it ugly head again but this time in Ubuntu 12.04.2.

  Will you please fix it again?

  The workaround is:

  sudo apt-get install oem-gtk-config

  The cp the appropriate file from /usr/share/applications/   to
  ~/Desktop

  Thanks so much.  I really appreciate all your work on the project as
  well as your assistance and sharing of your talents.
