Bug description:
  Keyboard shortcuts are key combinations like Alt+F (usually opens the
  File menu) and Ctrl+O (usually opens the File→Open... dialog box).

  There is an issue with non-latin keyboard layouts that the keys under F or O 
(for Alt+F and Ctrl+O respectively) would correspond to some other character.
  What should happen then? There is some smart functionality (at least in the 
GTK+ library) that when we press a shortcut, it will try to make Alt+F or 
Ctrl+O work, even if the active keyboard layout is not English.

  For this smart functionality to work, it requires us to have as first 
keyboard layout the English (en) layout. Then, GTK+ will be able to
  check whether the shortcut makes sense for English, and if so, will run it.
  All that even if the active layout is Greek or Russian or something else. 

  This report has over 300 comments and these comments include all sort of 
corner cases that indeed shortcuts do not work. In general, shortcuts work,
  but in specific cases there are issues that need to be fixed.

  What we need to do, is collect those corner cases and create new
  separate reports.

  Here are the corner cases:

  1. In Dash (in Unity 7), shortcuts like Super+S/W work (for example, Greek, 
Russian), but they do not work for Super+A/F/M/C/V. 
  Report: 

  2. Java GUI applications on Linux do not support shortcuts in non-latin 
languages. This is an issue with Java and should be reported there.
  Java GUI apps are not included in any of the Ubuntu ISOs. 
  Report: 

  3. Shortcuts that use Ctrl on LibreOffice work for several languages (like 
Greek, Russian), but has been reported not to work on Hebrew.
  This should be a separate bug report specific to Hebrew and other languages 
affected in the same way.

Bug description:
  DNS was broken in Xenial minimal images under some circumstances due
  to a 0-byte /etc/resolv.conf file.

  [Test Case]
  Build Xenial Minimal Image
  Check /etc/resolv.conf and confirm it is a symlink and not a 0-byte file.

  [Regression Potential]
  Regression would manifest in inability to do name resolution completely.

  Although a 0-byte /etc/resolv.conf does currently prevent name
  resolution, it can be repaired by running `# dhclient`.

  An example of a regression would potentially be that the above
  workaround is no longer effective.

2018-11-21 Thread Tiago Stürmer Daitx

  This is one of our projects: https://github.com/LableOrg/java-nicerxvi
  
  Clone the project, and call `mvn clean install`. For me it now fails to

  [SRU] remove orphaned initrd old-dkms files in /boot

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  If a dkms package is installed which has REMAKE_INITRD or the same setting 
has been manually configured by a user then when a kernel is removed its 
possible for an ".old-dkms" file to be left in /boot with no associated kernel.

  bug 1515513 dealt with removing old-dkms initrd files using the
  kernel's prerm hook, but that is only executed for the kernel version
  being removed: any other old-dkms file generated prior to that would
  not be removed by the hook, taking space in the /boot directory and
  being carried forward with every upgrade.

  Note: Filling up the /boot partition causes updates and upgrades to
  fail.

  [Test Case]
  As the fix for bug 1515513 is available on Xenial and Bionic it is no longer 
possible to reproduce this by simply installing and updating kernels - dkms 
2.2.0.3-2ubuntu11.3/xenial or 2.3-3ubuntu1/bionic would be required for that. 
In order to replicate it an old dkms file will be created by hand.

  This assumes a new Xenial/Bionic schroot.

  1) create files to work as a placeholders for old dkms files (there are 4 
possible namings for these files)
  touch /boot/initrd-4.0.0-0-generic.img.old-dkms 
/boot/initramfs-4.0.0-0-generic.img.old-dkms 
/boot/initrd.img-4.0.0-0-generic.old-dkms /boot/initrd-4.0.0-0-generic.old-dkms

  2) install 3 old kernels, r8168-dkms, and the current initramfs-tools
  * xenial:
  apt-get install -y linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic linux-image-4.4.0-22-generic 
linux-image-4.4.0-24-generic r8168-dkms initramfs-tools=0.122ubuntu8.12
  * bionic:
  apt-get install -y linux-image-4.15.0-32-generic 
linux-image-4.15.0-33-generic linux-image-4.15.0-34-generic r8168-dkms 
initramfs-tools=0.130ubuntu3.3

  3) install the headers for the old kernels (forces dkms to run)
  * xenial:
  apt-get install -y linux-headers-4.4.0-21-generic 
linux-headers-4.4.0-22-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-24-generic
  * bionic:
  apt-get install -y linux-headers-4.15.0-32-generic 
linux-headers-4.15.0-33-generic linux-headers-4.15.0-34-generic

  4) verify that there are 7 old-dkms, the 4 manually created ones and one for 
each installed kernel
  ls -1 /boot/*.old-dkms

  5) install the initramfs-tools from proposed that contains this fix
  apt-get install -y initramfs-tools

  6) verify that the manually created old-dkms files were removed and that 
there are only 3 files now, one for each installed kernel
  ls /boot/*.old-dkms

  7) mark kernel images and headers as automatically installed
  apt-mark auto linux-image-4*-generic linux-headers-4*-generic

  8) autoremove the older kernel
  apt-get autoremove -y

  9) verify that there are now only 2 old-dkms, one for each installed kernel
  ls -1 /boot/*.old-dkms

  
  These steps guarantees that:
  - orphaned old-dkms are correctly removed from /boot
  - non-orphaned old-dkms are kept
  - when kernel is removed the related old-dkms are also deleted

  [Regression Potential]
  Somebody out there might expect the .old-dkms file to be kept, but that seems 
like an odd expectation.

  One notices *.old-dkms files being left behind still sitting on the
  disk after purging the related kernel. This can cause /boot to become
  full, and when it gets really bad, even sudo apt-get autoremove won't
  fix the problem - only deleting the old-dkms files manually solves the
  problem.

are only 3 files now, one for each installed kernel
  ls /boot/*.old-dkms

  8) verify that there are now only 2 old-dkms, one for each installed kernel
  ls /boot/*.old-dkms
  
  [Regression Potential]
  Somebody out there might expect the .old-dkms file to be kept, but that seems 
like an odd expectation.
  
  One notices *.old-dkms files being left behind still sitting on the disk
  after purging the related kernel. This can cause /boot to become full,
  and when it gets really bad, even sudo apt-get autoremove won't fix the
  problem - only deleting the old-dkms files manually solves the problem.

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  If a dkms package is installed which has REMAKE_INITRD or the same setting 
has been manually configured by a user then when a kernel is removed its 
possible for an ".old-dkms" file to be left in /boot with no associated kernel.

  bug 1515513 dealt with removing initrd.img-.old-dkms files
  using the kernel's prerm hook, but that is only executed for the
  kernel version being removed: any other old-dkms file generated prior
  to that would not be removed by the hook, taking space in the /boot
  directory.

  Note: Filling up the /boot partition causes updates to fail.

  [Test Case]
  As the fix for bug 1515513 is available on Xenial and Bionic it is no longer 
possible to reproduce this by simply installing and updating kernels - dkms 
2.2.0.3-2ubuntu11.3/xenial or 2.3-3ubuntu1/bionic would be required for that. 
In order to replicate it an old dkms file will be created by hand.

  This assumes a new Xenial/Bionic schroot.

  1) create a file to work as a placeholder for the initrd.img old dkms file
  sudo touch /boot/initrd.img-4.0.0-0-generic.old-dkms

  2) install 3 old kernels, r8168-dkms, and the current initramfs-tools
  * xenial:
  sudo apt-get install -y linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic 
linux-image-4.4.0-22-generic linux-image-4.4.0-24-generic r8168-dkms 
initramfs-tools=0.122ubuntu8.12
  * bionic:
  TBD

  3) install the
