[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 sinc

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):

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 t

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 bet so far. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, w

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.

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 bee

@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. pur

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.

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.
