Ah, yes, it is. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/1998947 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/2017401
The system knows when a reboot is required in those fraction of cases when it is despite having livepatch enabled. A message dialogue pops up during an apt-get / aptitude upgrade to recommend one at those times and motd is also said to mention that one is required when it is. Why can the reboot-required file not be created as well in those cases? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1984203 Title: /var/run/reboot-required not created after installing new kernel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1984203/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
