Title:
98-reboot-required and Interaction with livepatch
Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in update-notifier package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
If a system is using canonical livepatch, has it enabled, and patches
are applied, it could be confusing for a user to receive a "system
restart required" messages in the MOTD when logging in.
That message, when present, is printed by 98-reboot-required which
essentially just cats /var/run/reboot-required to stdout. That file is
placed by packages that require a reboot so that they are properly
used in their updated versions. Examples that come to mind are libc
and the kernel.
There is a secondary file that can be created which says which
packages requested the reboot. That would be /var/run/reboot-
required.pkgs
Ideally that script should not print out the reboot required message
if a) livepatch is installed and enabled; b) the only trigger for the
reboot is a kernel update.
For (a), one can use the command "ubuntu-advantage is-livepatch-
enabled" and check $?. That is in the ubuntu-advantage-tools package.
