[Bug 1675079] Re: 16.04 LTS Partition /boot fills up with Kernel images, gets underwear in a twist

2018-12-14 Thread Not Martin Wimpress
I understand. Saying "the default is true" is a bit puzzling, but after
reading https://github.com/mvo5/unattended-upgrades/blob/master
/unattended-upgrade#L1957 , the conditional makes sense since the
default [object] is defined as "True". It also makes sense how this
works for proposed-16.04 since that line isn't even mentioned in the
config but "True" is pushed in the script anyway.

2018-12-14 Thread Not Martin Wimpress
Balint, I'm confused on your statement in the other dup bug report
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-
upgrades/+bug/1357093/comments/129 ) that this is fixed in 18.04, but
looking at line 60 in the "50unattended-upgrades.Ubuntu" file in the
current package (1.1ubuntu1.18.04.7):

//Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Kernel-Packages "false";

...it appears to me that 2 modifications are needed before any kernels
are auto-removed. I saw your Nov 9th commit to switch it to "true", but
doesn't the line still needs to be commented out in order to activate?

[Bug 1297437] Re: warning "Application already exists, re-requesting properties"

2016-12-24 Thread Not Martin Wimpress
Looks like this bug needs to be re-opened because I'm getting the same
behavior on Lubuntu 16.04 LTS. I noticed under "autostart applications"
in the "default LXDE applications" settings, the "application indicator"
was unselected, so I selected it -- the warnings went away, but the
indicators in the system tray completely vanished (including
network/wifi options)...even after attempting to manually add/remove
them from the panel options. Unselected it again, rebooted, indicators
are back but also the warning as well.

[Bug 1183692] Re: Not enough disk space for kernel security update on /boot

2016-12-09 Thread Not Martin Wimpress
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1357093 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1357093

Apparently, according to this page:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RemoveOldKernels -- you're ultimately
responsible for keeping /boot clean because there's no "automatic"
mechanism by which old kernels are purged. I've found in my Lubuntu
16.04 installation that the easiest way of doing this is simply "sudo
apt autoremove" but in other distros like LM, I would simulate a run
first by doing a "sudo apt-get -s autoremove" to ensure nothing odd will
get removed (such as VLC if xplayer is removed as VLC will act as an
orphan dependency in that situation.) Many "unneeded dependency"
packages can get marked as "auto removable" -- not just old kernels.

Btw, that Ubuntu article mentions autoremove not "purging" the old
kernels...in my own testing on Lubuntu 16.04, the old kernels were
indeed marked as "auto removable"...I simply did "sudo apt autoremove"
and that freed up /boot to 25% used (a "freshly-normal" size with LVM),
so I'm assuming that was an error (or someone else can correct me here.)
The "unattended-upgrades" package was NOT installed by default...that's
apparently another error in the article, as it says, "The unattended-
upgrades package, included with the default install of all Ubuntu
flavors..."

If you're on LM, then do the byobu -> "purge old kernels" method
described here:
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=1242953#p1242953 -- for
whatever reason, the devs there don't mark old kernels as "auto
removable" so you need to jump these extra hoops on Mint.

Personally, I think a clear warning message should appear in the
Ubiquity installer when choosing to select LVM encryption about how
/boot needs to be *manually* cleaned after 3-4 kernel installs. That
shouldn't be too hard to do right? It seems like there's a new kernel
every 2 weeks these days -- which only compounds the problem.

Allowing "obsolete" codecs to run is an absolutely terrible idea. For
those of you on 14.04, I'd recommend updating libav-tools by PPA
following this answer: http://askubuntu.com/a/851192 That's your best

2016-11-21 Thread Not Martin Wimpress
Does anyone have this problem in Linux Mint 18? "Unattended-Upgrade
::Remove-New-Unused-Dependencies" also does not exist for me but the
package was last updated a month ago, which leads me to believe the
configuration file "50unattended-upgrades" wasn't "replaced" with the
new version. Also, the package has other issues including not fetching
from the correct repos as it's a stock Ubuntu config.

Actually I think this is the parent bug for anyone watching:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-
upgrades/+bug/1357093

LM18 has a really poor implementation of "unattended-upgrades" and isn't
properly configured by default and (as a part of the package) isn't
running a pseudo-apt-autoremove command built into the latest version.

If any of you are reading this and are on 16.04, is "unattended-
upgrades" installed by default?

[Bug 1183692] Re: Not enough disk space for kernel security update on /boot

2016-11-19 Thread Not Martin Wimpress
My parents got this error message on their LM18 box. They are not
technical people; that's why they have Mint installed. When I heard
about this, my jaw literally dropped.

Can someone tell me what the point is to store old and "insecure"
kernels? Considering the frequency with which Ubuntu has been pushing
out security kernels this year, you would think maybe the last one (or
two maximum) is kept in case of a corrupt condition -- not all of them
-- unnecessarily clogging their /boot partition.

This needs to be worked on. Immediately.

[Bug 1442050] Re: (colord:832): Cd-WARNING **: failed to get session [pid 690]: Unknown error -2

2016-11-07 Thread Not Martin Wimpress
@cpollock, I don't know your situation specifically so I would be
speculating at best. But, if I were in your position I might do the
following (but only do these steps at your own risk and have backups of
your data elsewhere):


1. delete any and all listed printers in your printer manager.
2. purge the foo2zjs drivers (I'm not familiar with the "correct" way of doing 
this so ask someone else.)
3. ensure hplip is fully-purged from your system by doing something like a 
"sudo apt purge hplip hplip-data"
4. now, install hplip and use hp's own drivers as explained in #22. Something 
curious from your log: hpmud is a component of hplip so perhaps it was 
installed at one time and wasn't properly purged before you installed the 
foo2zjs drivers and now colord is complaining that it can't see your 1020's 
color profile because foo2zjs isn't allowing it (pure speculation again.)
5. If those steps don't solve it, then perhaps purging and re-installing cups 
and then re-doing the steps over again might.


Good luck.

Btw, for those of you with the cups scheduler messages as well and still
want to share with samba shares, you can disable just printer sharing
and that will also effectively get rid of these messages as well. The
guide to do that is here:

Be sure to reboot.

2016-10-19 Thread Not Martin Wimpress
Btw @cpollock, I noticed you have a 1020 printer. HP uses a convoluted
method to ensure you accept their license agreement to install their
proprietary driver for this particular printer. If you haven't already
done so by first installing the hplip gui and then manually running the
hp setup, then go ahead and do a "sudo apt-get install hplip-gui", turn
on the printer, then "delete" the printer listed in your list of
installed printers, then do a "hp-setup", accept the license agreement,
follow the instructions to complete installation, reboot, and now you're
free to uninstall "hplip-gui" if you want. (Just don't also uninstall
"hplip".)

I was referring to the cups scheduler. You might have issues with
applications (or system applications as in the case with samba) trying
to perpetually connect to your devices' embedded colour profiles and
fails spectacularly when said profile no longer is accessible.

This bug is successfully resolved by removing "samba" and "samba-common"

when the device is not longer available (possibly by default gufw
