The upstart package in quantal-proposed was released so removing the verification-needed tag.

Specifically, the block_suspend capability is new in the 12.10 kernel and does not exist in the 12.04 LTS kernel. On upgrade, the cups upstart job calls /lib/init/apparmor-profile-load from upstart, which in turn calls apparmor_parser. apparmor_parser can exit with error on upgrades causing the upstart job to fail. [TESTCASE] * Regular upgrades using do-release-upgrade or update-manager don't seem to be affected, so it is best to: - obtain the apparmor profile from the 12.10 cups package[1], copy it to /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd and then perform 'sudo stop cups ; sudo start cups'. If the bug is not fixed, you will see 'start: Job failed to start'. If it is fixed, you will see 'cups start/running, process ####'. [1]http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu- branches/ubuntu/quantal/cups/quantal/view/head:/debian/local/apparmor- profile [Regression Potential] * The regression potential is extremely low. The only change is adding '|| exit 0' to a shell script. [Other Info] * This has been discussed with the security team, the release team and foundations and we all agree this is the best fix at this time. * On upgrades, upstart is unpacked very early (much earlier than cups), so the new /lib/init/apparmor-profile-load should be in place before the upstart job is used * apparmor_parser failure will not remove the old profile when it faces this error condition, so the program will not go unconfined Previous report: On our Jenkins builds we're getting a failure to install the cups package. This seems to be because the apparmor profile looks for suspend capability but the virtualized builders do not have it. Here seems to be the relevant log: AppArmor parser error for /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd in /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd at line 24: Invalid capability block_suspend. start: Job failed to start invoke-rc.d: initscript cups, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing cups (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: cups E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) Full log: https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/indicator-session- ci/label=quantal/16/console To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1058356/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
