Status in ureadahead source package in Bionic:

Bug description:
[impact]
ureadahead logs thousands of lines of useless noise on each boot.
[test case]
install bionic on physical hardware (ureadhead doesn't run under virt)
and check the boot logs:
#journalctl -b | 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.
To see if you have this problem, run: journalctl -b | grep ureadahead
| grep relative | wc -l
Thanks
