For documentation purposes. The autopkgtests failures for systemd were unrelated to this (not regressions). I checked their logs and reran with the migration-reference/0 trigger so not to use kbd from -proposed; that failed as well. The pending SRU and update-excuses pages no longer show kbd blocked on the autopkgtests failures. https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/pending-sru.html https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/jammy/update_excuses.html#kbd https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/kinetic/update_excuses.html#kbd -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to kbd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1996619 Title: Setfont error due to deprecated PIO_FONTX ioctl Status in subiquity: Invalid Status in kbd package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in kbd source package in Jammy: Fix Committed Status in kbd source package in Kinetic: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] There is an error message that get thrown in in syslog.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1996619] Re: Setfont error due to deprecated PIO_FONTX ioctl
@hypothetical-lemon - thanks for preparing theses! Some quick feedback: - The jammy and kinetic packages need to have different versions. See the following for a versioning scheme: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Update_the_packaging - Just a nit, but when you respin for version strings, would you mind making the actual patch file identical between the 2 versions? Right now at least the Subject: line is different. That would make a debdiff between your 2 updates cleanly show that they are identical code-wise. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to kbd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1996619 Title: Setfont error due to deprecated PIO_FONTX ioctl Status in subiquity: Invalid Status in kbd package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in kbd source package in Jammy: In Progress Status in kbd source package in Kinetic: In Progress Bug description: There is an error message that get thrown in in syslog.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1996619] Re: Setfont error due to deprecated PIO_FONTX ioctl
This bug was fixed in the package kbd - 2.5.1-1ubuntu1 --- kbd (2.5.1-1ubuntu1) lunar; urgency=medium * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes: - Add setfont, kbd_mode, and loadkeys to initramfs for console-setup. - Added initramfs hook to have setfont/loadkeys available in initramfs. - Use ckbcomp to get the keyboard layout if other data files are not available. - Change loadkeys to find any console not in raw mode when invoked without an explicit console parameter, in case the foreground console is in raw mode. - Add setvtrgb to kbd-udeb. - Fix incorrect keymap sanity check in loadkeys_ckbcomp.diff. - debian/control: Depend on console-setup | console-setup-mini, since console-setup-mini also Depends on kbd now through console-setup-linux. - debian/patches/loadkeys_find_usable_console.diff: fix wrong type argument to ioctl(..., KDGKBMODE), which causes consoles to not be correctly detected on 64-bit archs. LP: #1621824. * Removed obsolete patches/changes: - d/p/fix_use_after_free.patch to clean up a use-after-free of pipe_cmd, now merged upstream. * New upstream release drops deprecated ioctls removed in Linux v5.12. LP: #1996619. kbd (2.5.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium * Team upload. [ Andreas Henriksson ] * New upstream release. * Unfuzz debian/patches/Miscellaneous-manpage-corrections-and-additions.patch * Unfuzz debian/patches/Check-for-X-in-kbd_mode.patch * Revert "Cherry-pick no install libtswrap internal library" * Let `gbp pq ` refresh patches * Bump debhelper from old 10 to 13. * Set debhelper-compat version in Build-Depends. * Set upstream metadata fields: Bug-Database, Bug-Submit. * debian/copyright: Update paths of moved files [ nick black ] * refer to deallocvt(8), not disalloc(8) (Closes: #989525) [ Osamu Aoki ] * update d/control for console-setup (Closes: #998086) -- dann frazier Tue, 15 Nov 2022 17:21:19 -0700 ** Changed in: kbd (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to kbd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1996619 Title: Setfont error due to deprecated PIO_FONTX ioctl Status in subiquity: New Status in kbd package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in kbd source package in Jammy: New Bug description: There is an error message that get thrown in in syslog.
