Public bug reported: Attempting to install xenial from an alternate install image xenial- alternate-amd64.iso triggered the bug reported at:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=823665 and fixed by the patch at: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/pkg-util- linux.git/commit/?id=49a9f9ff0cdb64c02b12c2a00af30472305bc377 The patch was made on util-linux-2.28-2 but can be applied easily to 2.27.1-6ubuntu3 as found in xenial, so I back-ported the patch onto my local copy of the iso and can confirm that the installation got past the installation of util-linux. ** Affects: util-linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1588287 Title: util-linux breaks xenial installation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/1588287/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
