[Test Case] 1. Grab a stock xenial image, and unpack it and add zfs-utils to it. Repack it. 2. Boot machine 3. Check systemctl --failed. [Regression Potential] * none expected, patch has been intensively tested by the upsteam zfs test script suite. * This is a upstream commit merge in 0.7.0. * A ubuntu package has been tested (including the upstream commit) by a user of the community facing this bug, and confirmed it addresses the problem (see comment #7). [Other Info] * The "reading" is redirected to /proc/self/mounts. The writing to /etc/mtab. Some distros still need that. The current hope is to replace the writing (and maybe reading) with libmount, in a second phase. * Upstream commit : https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/commit/792517389fad5c495a2738b61c2e9c65dedaaa9a * Upstream bug: https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/issues/4680 * Debian bug : https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=839071 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sysvinit/+bug/1607920/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
