I will further increase this SRU bug with information that is lacking on from the original bug proposal:
[Impact] During an upgrade from trusty to xenial, users will be prompted to make a decision regarding the diff on unattended-upgrades. This is not a good user experience, specially because the user can make an uninformed decision of keeping the old config file, which will make unattended-upgrades to not work as we expect. [Test case] To reproduce the isse, you can: 1. Launch a trusty vm 2. Perform a do-release-upgrade and observe that you will be prompted with the 50unattende-upgrades change To verify that the error is fixed: 1. Launch a trusty vm 2. Import this ppa into the system: https://launchpad.net/~lamoura/+archive/ubuntu/unattended-upgrades-ppa 3. Configure do-release-upgrade to allow using third parties during upgrade 4. Run a do-release-upgrade 5. Verify the prompt is no longer there and that we end up with the expected 50unattended-upgrades config file [Where problems could occur] The changes is this package should only be surface during an upgrade operation. Because we are now delivering a new file to the system and configuring postinst to use it. Because of that, we believe this is the only scenario that could be affect in case of a regression is discovered in the package. ------------------- Finally, if there is any additional information that I need to add to this SRU, just let me know and I will provide it -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1915547 Title: sru unattended-upgrades ( 1.1ubuntu1.18.04.7~16.04.6 update to 1.1ubuntu1.18.04.7~16.04.7 ) Xenial To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1915547/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
