Unattended-upgrades generates the patterns in a similar way and also don't cover linux-kvm-tools-4.15.0-1012 and similar packages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1828200 Title: [SRU] kernel package names ending with version without flavor are not matched by generated patterns To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1828200/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1828200] Re: [SRU] kernel package names ending with version without flavor are not matched by generated patterns
This bug was fixed in the package unattended-upgrades - 1.13 --- unattended-upgrades (1.13) unstable; urgency=medium [ Alban VIDAL ] * Update french translation. Signed-off-by: Alban VIDAL [ Balint Reczey ] * Don't crash collecting transitive dependencies when package has no candidate (LP: #1825886) * Use mark_install_adjusted() in rewind_cache() The original cache had packages marked with adjustments thus rewinding should also do adjustments to reach the same state. Not using mark_install_adjusted() also crashes when apt raises error on held packages. (LP: #1826157) * test_rewind: Update test to check if adjustend rewinding took place * Only allow removals in valid autoremoval sets * Fix one more log location in the man page (Closes: #928601) * Factor out kernel regexp generation to functions * Packages including kernel version without flavor in their name may be kernel packages. Also add autopkgtest for checking if the generated patterns cover the currently running kernel. (LP: #1828200) * Skip upgrade-all-security test when there are no updates to test with. Shortly after a release there may not be security updates against the packages used in the chroot used for the test. * Test with latest stable in upgrade-all-security on testing * Fix testing Debian's updates in upgrade-all-security * Store list of kept packages and report the number of them in motd (LP: #1823070) * Mention APT's apt-daily-upgrade.service in the man page * 50unattended-upgrades.md5sum add MD5 of current files * PEP8: Fix breaking line after binary operator * debian/tests/control: Fix Depends: of upgrade-between-snapshots * debian/tests/control: Allow stderr in kernel-patterns [ Gordon Lack ] * Replace boolean Unattended-Upgrade::MailOnlyOnError2 mail reporting setting with multi-valued (string) Unattended-Upgrade::MailReport. [ Jaime Hablutzel ] * Error message improved on very improbable condition [ Clint Armstrong ] * Fix showing multi-line strings on Plymouth. When unattended-upgrades sends it's status to plymouth it sends a multi-line string which causes plymouth to display overlapping text, because plymouth only scrolls one line when the message is sent.
