Public bug reported:
Hey
I had some "vmlinuz-foo" kernels in /boot which were picked up by grub in the
past; now they still get picked up, but there's a dpkg warning when update-grub
runs during upgrades:
dpkg: error: mauvaise syntaxe de la version «%off%»%: version number does not
start with a digit
dpkg: error: mauvaise syntaxe de la version «%on%»%: version number does not
start with a digit
(the actual kernels were /boot/vmlinuz-on and -off)
It's likely the result of dpkg being stricted about accepted version
numbers, and "on" and "off" not being acceptable version numbers.
This doesn't seem to cause any issue apart of the error message, kernels
still seem to be picked up.
Cheers,
