--- Begin Message ---Package: needrestart Version: 3.5-4+deb11u2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, When running 'needrestart -b' on an AMD system, I get the following uninitialized variable warning. It also does not report the expected microcode version (NEEDRESTART-UCEXP). See output: section below for example output of needrestart -b. Use of uninitialized value $ucode_vars{"AVAIL"} in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/sbin/needrestart line 904. This perl warning disappears when adding the -v option (needrestart -b -v), and the correct value is reported for NEEDRESTART-UCEXP. The processor, in this system, is: vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 18 model : 1 model name : AMD A4-3400 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics stepping : 0 microcode : 0x3000027 It looks to me like the problem is that line 182 of /usr/share/perl5/NeedRestart/uCode/AMD.pm ends in a comma (,) instead of a semicolon (;). This means that assignment is subsumed into the next line which is under if ($debug). See the attached patch. It also looks to me like this is similar symptoms with a different root cause from bug #973050.
