** Description changed: + [ Impact ] + + iotop-c failed to launch at all due to permission denials in nl_init and + missing capabilities in the iotop-c profile. + + [ Test Plan ] + + * Launch iotop-c under sudo (make sure to invoke iotop-c directly instead of iotop, which might be symlinked to the distinct iotop-py) + - Without the fix: iotop-c fails to launch due to permission denials in nl_init + - With the fix: iotop-c should launch successfully + * Attempt to set the ionice value of a running process using iotop-c, and verify that the operation succeeds + + [ Where problems could occur ] + + The additions to the iotop-c profile are loosening confinement on a + profile. However, if a user manually modified the installed profiles, + then the package upgrade would cause conflicts, and rejection of the + incoming changes (either by hand during an interactive upgrade or + automatically during an batch unattended upgrade) would result in end + users not getting the packaged fix. + + [ Other Info ] + + --------Original bug description + On a fresh installation of Kubuntu 25.04 in VirtualBox Installation of packages 1.26-1, 1.27-1 and 1.28-1 work, but program iotop-c does not start due to insufficient rights with output: nl_init: insufficient rights Interestingly, all three packages work on Kubuntu 24.10 Therefore, this appears to be a problem with the underlying operating system.
