Public bug reported: Steps to reproduce:
lxc launch ubuntu:focal reproducer lxc exec reproducer bash do-release-upgrade -d Expected: no Postfix debconf prompt Actual: Postfix debconf prompt This is bad because there's a debconf prompt at all, but also that users don't really know how to respond to this one because they're not the ones demanding an MTA. Why is Postfix being pulled in on this upgrade? After the upgrade, I see that the only thing that Recommends default-mta | mail-transport-agent is popularity-contest, so I think this package is the culprit. In Focal, was seeded in the standard seed which is why it was installed. However, the version in Focal does not have this Recommends. In Jammy, it is no longer seeded (https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu- core-dev/ubuntu- seeds/+git/platform/commit/standard?id=82c97be2eee777cb2f579474259cf86e51fe3a8f) but since it was installed previously, the upgrade causes Postfix to get installed during the upgrade process. A possible solution is to remove the Recommends in an Ubuntu delta. ** Affects: popularity-contest (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: rls-jj-incoming -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1968874 Title: Upgrades from Focal to Jammy pull in Postfix To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/popularity-contest/+bug/1968874/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
