The output from Seth's grep (in the bug description) is a little misleading because the archival of kernel configs on kernel.ubuntu.com is buggy. It is including kernel configs of the generic, lowlatency, etc., kernels in the directories of the derivative kernels. For example, these config files should not exist because the linux-kvm source package does not produce an i386 generic or lowlatency binary package:
cosmic/linux-kvm/4.15.0-1008.8/i386-config.flavour.generic cosmic/linux-kvm/4.15.0-1008.8/i386-config.flavour.lowlatency If we inspect the directory contents while logged into kernel.ubuntu.com, we see this: $ ls -1 ~kernel-ppa/public_html/config/cosmic/linux-kvm/4.15.0-1008.8/ amd64-config.flavour.generic amd64-config.flavour.kvm amd64-config.flavour.lowlatency arm64-config.flavour.generic arm64-config.flavour.snapdragon armhf-config.flavour.generic armhf-config.flavour.generic-lpae i386-config.flavour.generic i386-config.flavour.lowlatency ppc64el-config.flavour.generic s390x-config.flavour.generic Of those files, only amd64-config.flavour.kvm is valid for linux-kvm and it does not contain CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT=m because it is a 64 bit kernel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1818552 Title: disable a.out support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1818552/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
