This is not the case. Even today, one of the machines is showing the
message from the wrapper that indicates the DHCP lease was not correctly
applied according to the journal:
➜ sjors@cuba ~ cat /tmp/nm-helper-retries.log
Tue Nov 14 07:23:07 CET 2017: needed 5 attempts to update NetworkManager
(RENEW).
Tue Nov 14 09:17:45 CET 2017: needed 5 attempts to update NetworkManager
(RENEW).
Tue Nov 14 10:06:58 CET 2017: needed 4 attempts to update NetworkManager
(RENEW).
This is even though the machine was rebooted yesterday, so the daemon
was restarted:
➜ sjors@cuba ~ uptime
23:12:16 up 1 day, 14:04, 3 users, load average: 0,59, 0,49, 0,47
And the machine is using the patched version of the network-manager:
➜ sjors@cuba ~ apt-cache policy network-manager
network-manager:
Installed: 1.2.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1screenpoint1
Candidate: 1.2.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1screenpoint1
Version table:
*** 1.2.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1screenpoint1 100
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
1.2.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 500
500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64
Packages
However, I have not investigated why this happens, as the wrapper script
is an acceptable work-around. I'll report back, however, whether we
still have this problem with the updated Xenial packages -- there is
always a chance I made an error somewhere.
