Public bug reported: When installing the linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic kernel from bionic on xenial breaks because of the unversioned Depends on linux-base.
/var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic.postinst: 50: /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic.postinst: linux-update-symlinks: not found dpkg: error processing package linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 127 Errors were encountered while processing: linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) If the trigger is called, when some meta packages are installed, it won't happen. If all packages are upgraded, it's possible linux-base is going to be upgraded first, so the problem won't happen either. So, not all upgrades will be affected. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo (cascardo) Status: In Progress ** Affects: linux-hwe-edge (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid ** Affects: linux-hwe-edge (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo (cascardo) Status: In Progress ** Affects: linux-hwe-edge (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: Confirmed => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Assignee: (unassigned) => Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo (cascardo) ** Also affects: linux-hwe-edge (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux-hwe-edge (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: linux-hwe-edge (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767133 Title: linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic install after upgrade from xenial breaks Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux-hwe-edge package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux source package in Xenial: Invalid Status in linux-hwe-edge source package in Xenial: Confirmed Status in linux source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in linux-hwe-edge source package in Bionic: Invalid Bug description: When installing the linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic kernel from bionic on xenial breaks because of the unversioned Depends on linux-base. /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic.postinst: 50: /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic.postinst: linux-update-symlinks: not found dpkg: error processing package linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 127 Errors were encountered while processing: linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) If the trigger is called, when some meta packages are installed, it won't happen.
