Hello, I would like to add that triggering a kernel dump in seconds following the installation of the package remains a corner case in a test context and not the usual behavior.
I have seen that too in my test scripts and syncing right after the installation fixed the issue as well. Bringing in the upstream change is a good solution. ...Louis -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to makedumpfile in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1714485 Title: Ubuntu 16.04.03: kdump fails with error "kdump-tools[1532]: /etc/init.d/kdump-tools: 26: [: -ne: unexpected operator" when / file system is xfs.
