sudo swapon --summary
Filename                                        Type            Size            
        Used    Priority
/dev/sdc2                               partition       50331644        0

/dev/sda6                               partition       50331644        0       
        -2

However, in /etc/fstab:
# swap was on /dev/sda6 during installation
UUID=4870beef-bb2c-40c1-91da-f1444f90c51b none                                  
        swap    sw,nofail,pri=-1  0       0

# swap on SSD Samsung  /dev/sdc2
UUID=fa2b8ce4-6ce7-4fb2-ac12-475264bed20f none                                  
        swap    sw,nofail,pri=-2  0       0

Does the fact that sdc2 is a SSD makes swapon override the fstab priorities? 
It is suspicious that swapon prints sdc2 first in the summary. despite the 
following facts:
- sdc2 priority is -2 in fstab
- sdc2 is declared after sda2 in fstab
- sdc2 is after sda2 in alphabetical order

** Affects: util-linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Summary changed:

- Swapon does not respect fstab priorities
