[test case] install bionic on physical hardware (ureadhead doesn't run under virt) and check the boot logs: #journalctl -m | grep ureadahead | wc -l 30244 ureadahead stores its data in /var/lib/ureadahead/pack so on future boots, it doesn't print as many noise messages (if any), until the pack file is a month or more old, at which time it recreates it (at the next boot) and prints all the noise out again. to reproduce this test case without waiting a month, just remove the pack file and reboot. [regression potential] very little, adding the -q param only causes libnih to switch to quiet mode. any regression would likely be around ureadahead not starting at all, which really wouldn't be that bad anyway, as ureadahead has been removed entirely from Ubuntu starting in cosmic. [other info] original description: -- ureadahead reports relative path errors in my journalctl output. This is currently 4368 lines of useless annoyances in my logs.
