Public bug reported: The latest aufs-tools package synced from Debian fails to build in Ubuntu (but not in Debian) because the Ubuntu kernel package has aufs sauce patches and they are not at a compatible version.

(My understanding is that we probably don't want to drop them because docker may use aufs as a backend; and while this is deprecated, there is currently no upgrade story for users currently using it.) ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Incomplete ** Package changed: aufs-tools (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1851447 Title: aufs-tools 4.9 FTBFS because of wrong SAUCE driver in the kernel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1851447/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
