Title: linux-lts and linux-hwe autopkgtests fail due to version mismatch Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux source package in Trusty: In Progress Status in linux source package in Xenial: In Progress Bug description: the autopkgtests for the kernel include 'ubuntu-regression-suite' which contains this test: sver=`dpkg-parsechangelog -SVersion` read x rver x </proc/version_signature flavour=${rver#*-*-} rver=${rver%-$flavour} echo "Source Package Version: $sver" echo "Running Kernel Version: $rver" if [ "$sver" != "$rver" ]; then echo "ERROR: running version does not match source package" 1>&2 exit 1 fi However, when testing a -lts or -hwe kernel build, the running kernel will not match because the running kernel is the stock version while the building/testing kernel is the newer -lts/-hwe version. This failure results in autopkgtest errors for all other packages that invoke linux autopkgtests - for example, initramfs-tools, systemd, ... This requires unnecessary work to investigate the autopkgtest errors every time, only to find it's a autopkgtest error.
