Public bug reported:
The standard libs check when running on Raspberry Pi (this seems to work on
amd64) fails the kernel version check for two reasons. The first is known
(permissions on the image file), but the second seems to be a difference in the
way the kernel test results are provided.
Specifically, based on my looking at the perl code, I think this is the command
run to collect the information:
strings vmlinuz-5.8.0-1007-raspi | egrep ^5.8.0-1007-raspi\|"^Linux version"
Linux version 5.8.0-1007-raspi (buildd@bos02-arm64-039) (gcc (Ubuntu
10.2.0-13ubuntu1) 10.2.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1) #10-Ubuntu
SMP PREEMPT Thu Nov 5 17:52:40 UTC 2020 (Ubuntu 5.8.0-1007.10-raspi 5.8.14)
5.8.0-1007-raspi SMP preempt mod_unload aarch64
5.8.0-1007-raspi
5.8.0-1007-raspi
The problem seems to be on the first line, where after the expected version
string, is an extra " (Ubuntu 5.8.0-1007.10-raspi 5.8.14)" text.
Editing the libs file as follows seems to solve the problem for me:
--- libs 2020-11-19 02:07:12.716041097 +0000
+++ libs.local 2020-11-19 02:05:20.625963787 +0000
@@ -104,7 +104,7 @@
"$newest_kernel_image. Can't check kernel
version!\n\n");
}
} else {
- if ($kernel_image_version =~ /^(Linux version
)?\Q$running_kernel_release\E \(.*\) \Q$running_kernel_version\E$/) {
+ if ($kernel_image_version =~ /^(Linux version
)?\Q$running_kernel_release\E \(.*\) \Q$running_kernel_version\E/) {
$bb->color_line('green',
sprintf("Newest kernel is running: %s, version
%s\n\n",
$running_kernel_release,
Alternatively, adding .* before the $ would also resolve this issue. I'm
not sure how to collect and repeat the other version information to
resolve this, nor how this might affect other platforms, so the above
seems to be the simplest solution (to just ignore any extraneous text)
that should work on any platform that it worked on before.
