Public bug reported: I was upgrading to the development version of 14.10 today, and kernel- common asked about the config file /etc/kernel-img.conf. I don't know how to handle the issue, but the file content report that the contents are only there for legacy use. Should it consider just overwriting that file in all cases instead of asking a user?
Here's the version info after the upgrade: $ dpkg -l kernel-common Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-==============-============-============-================================= ii kernel-common 13.014 all common elements for generated ker I am pretty sure I was at the latest version in 14.04 before the upgrade. My /etc/kernel-img.conf was an empty file. I don't remember ever editing that file. ** Affects: kernel-package (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1376568 Title: kernel-common asks to overwrite /etc/kernel-img.conf during 14.10 upgrade from 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kernel-package/+bug/1376568/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
