One of the packaging changes in the SRU which I don't see an explicit
bug for (so I'm attaching the question here) is:
+++ ubuntu-advantage-tools-27.3~21.10.1/debian/ubuntu-advantage-tools.postinst
2021-09-21 13:02:06.000000000 +0000
[...]
+configure_log_file() {
+ log_path=$1
+ if [ ! -f $log_path ]; then
+ touch $log_path
+ fi
+ chmod 0600 $log_path
+ chown root:root $log_path
+}
[...]
- if [ ! -f /var/log/ubuntu-advantage.log ]; then
- touch /var/log/ubuntu-advantage.log
- fi
- chmod 0600 /var/log/ubuntu-advantage.log
- chown root:root /var/log/ubuntu-advantage.log
+ configure_log_file /var/log/ubuntu-advantage.log
+ configure_log_file /var/log/ubuntu-advantage-timer.log
+ configure_log_file /var/log/ubuntu-advantage-license-check.log
+
[...]
It is unusual for maintainer scripts to pre-create log files. If these
files are removed, do the tools recreate them with the correct
permissions? (If so: is this code needed at all?)
** Changed in: ubuntu-advantage-tools (Ubuntu Impish)
