Bug#906873: linux-base: linux-version returns invalid information if gpg kernel signatures are present

[Florian Stinglmayr]

Hello,

I have had the same issue, and I also went forth and patched
Linux base to ignore the .sig files in the boot directory.

My patch is a little bit simpler however:

Index: linux-base/lib/DebianLinux.pm
===================================================================

@@ -88,6 +88,7 @@ sub image_list {
     my @results;
 
     for (glob("/boot/vmlinu[xz]-*")) {
+       next if /.*\.sig$/ig;
        push @results, [substr($_, length("/boot/vmlinu?-")), $_];
     }
     return @results;

Regards,
