Oh, yes, but that's incomplete, there's a ton of other places that need adjusting too. In practice, the only non-number value supported is always.
Fixed in https://salsa.debian.org/apt- team/apt/commit/489da40d56075efaa28bfdcfb7b02b3bcc222323 ** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840995 Title: check_stamp() function of apt.systemd.daily should not assume interval is a number Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: In the second half of the function there is # Calculate the interval in seconds depending on the unit specified if [ "${interval%s}" != "$interval" ] ; then interval="${interval%s}" elif [ "${interval%m}" != "$interval" ] ; then interval="${interval%m}" interval=$((interval*60)) elif [ "${interval%h}" != "$interval" ] ; then interval="${interval%h}" interval=$((interval*60*60)) else interval="${interval%d}" interval=$((interval*60*60*24)) fi so, a variable might hold something like "1d", "100m", etc. Yet in the first there is a condition if [ "$interval" -eq 0 ]; then debug_echo "check_stamp: interval=0" # treat as no time has passed return 1 fi which treats the value as a number and leads to /usr/lib/apt/apt.systemd.daily: 87: [: Illegal number: 20h To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1840995/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
