Public bug reported: This is, in fact, NOT a real bug report.
However, as Manfred asked me to report it here anyway (https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hdparm/+question/270310 ) I will do so. (Let alone because the genuine Debian OS is also still at 9.43...) Yes, (*)Ubuntu is VERY much behind with hdparm, quasi-stuck at 9.43 for more than 2 years. This is a bit much. If you'd like to know why it may be sensible to update, here's an example: https://sourceforge.net/p/hdparm/bugs/51/ --read-sector is byte-swapped in every version <= 9.43. Mark fixed this in 9.45+. unfortunately you guys were asleep with both eyes open and still haven't considered a tool update for 2 + years :) ** Affects: hdparm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: hdparm (Debian) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: hdparm (Debian) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1484289 Title: hdparm 9.43 -> 9.45+ update request To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hdparm/+bug/1484289/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
