Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.15-26-powerpc
The Linux kernel upgrades for dapper quietly fail because they update
the initrd.img and vmlinux symlinks in /, but not the ones in /boot
which yaboot uses. The result is that after reboot I'm still using the
old (vulnerable) kernel.
This copy of dapper was a fresh install just after dapper came out, and
/etc/yaboot.conf hasn't been altered by hand - it always referred to
/boot/initrd.img and /boot/vmlinux (and .old symlinks, which don't
exist).
** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Untriaged
Status: Unconfirmed
