Public bug reported: Updating to systemd 245.4-4ubuntu3.16 has caused a regression in Ubuntu 20.04, that fwupd-refresh.service always fails to run.
This has been root caused down to the changes in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/+bug/1871538 Unfortunately this is an upstream issue introduced by stable systemd. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/22737 The problem also occurs in Ubuntu 22.04 with a newer systemd release. As discussed in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/+bug/1871538/comments/61 it's a tradeoff of issues. So within Ubuntu something probably needs to be done about fwupd-refresh.service. One proposal is to remove DynamicUser=yes from the systemd unit, but this will mean fwupdgmr refresh runs as root. It's relatively sandboxed by other security mechanisms, but still not ideal. Could we repurpose any other service account? Or alternatively we can make a new fwupd service account that this systemd unit uses. ** Affects: fwupd Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: systemd Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: fwupd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: fwupd (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: fwupd (Ubuntu Impish) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu Impish) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: fwupd (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: fwupd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: systemd (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: fwupd (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: systemd (Ubuntu Impish) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: fwupd (Ubuntu Impish) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: systemd (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: fwupd (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Bug watch added: github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues #3037 https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/3037 ** Also affects: fwupd via https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/3037 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Bug watch added: github.com/systemd/systemd/issues #22737 https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/22737 ** Also affects: systemd via https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/22737 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1969976 Title: DynamicUser=1 doesn't get along with services that need dbus-daemon To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/fwupd/+bug/1969976/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
