The microcode packages are separate from linux-firmware, however looking quickly at the initramfs hooks which generate those messages it appears you must have some very old kernels installed, older than 3.10. The messages themselves are nothing to be too worried about though, it just means that the microcode isn't going to be updated early in the initramfs for those older kernels (which you hopefully are no longer using, you certainly weren't running one when you reported this bug).
You may want to take a look at what older kernels are installed on your system and clean those out. Were those the only error messages you got? If so I think you should be fine now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1812163 Title: package linux-firmware 1.173.3 failed to install/upgrade: package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should reinstall it before attempting configuration To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1812163/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
