| puetzk | just poking my head in per the comments I've added today about the root cause of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1820755 (Netboot install fails due to linux-image-4.4.0-143-generic.postinst linux-update-symlinks not found). Is there anything more an outsider can do to help? | 00:13 |
|---|---|---|
| ubot5` | Ubuntu bug 1820755 in linux (Ubuntu Xenial) "Netboot install fails due to linux-image-4.4.0-143-generic.postinst linux-update-symlinks not found" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 00:13 |
| puetzk | It seems to be a pretty simple case of inadequate Depends (it just has Depends: linux-base, which is met by the 4.0 the debootstrap xenial has, but it actually needs to be >= 4.1) | 00:15 |
| puetzk | Would be trivial to work around if it didn't break the base-installer before you have a chance to interact and upgrade the pacakge | 00:15 |
| puetzk | Just found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+source/linux/+bug/1820419, which seems to be the same root cause but has a update in -proposed, and tested that. Seems to fix the problem. | 01:31 |
| ubot5` | Ubuntu bug 1820419 in linux (Ubuntu Xenial) "linux-generic should depend on linux-base >=4.1" [High,In progress] | 01:31 |
| puetzk | So one should probably be marked as a dup of the other. I'm not sure what the preference is on that: 1820755 was more findable (had the error message for web searches) and has more discussion, 1820419 has an assignee and progress toward a fix | 01:33 |
| puetzk | Looks like the kernel team policy is that only members should mark duplicates, so I'll hold off on doing so. smb: see above comments about 1820419 and 1820755, and thank you so much for helping get this fixed. | 01:45 |

| smb | puetzk, I think duplicating is not restricted to kernel-team but bug triagers in general. But thanks for the hint, I will get the duplication done. | 08:24 |
| smb | puetzk, My preference at least is to mark 1820755 a duplicate of 1820419 since the latter is referenced in the upload, so it gets updated once that is released. | 08:27 |
| puetzk | smb: thanks. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Policies/DuplicateBugs is where I found the policy note that only the kernel-team was to mark duplicates | 11:55 |
| smb | puetzk, oh that was almost 9yrs ago... But I guess it was because people tend to make issues the same problem even if the only common thing is that is somewhere in the kernel (exaggerated of course) | 13:24 |
| puetzk | heh :-) | 13:24 |
| puetzk | I didn't spot the date, you're right | 13:25 |
