[Bug 851945] Re: P3:[Natty]:makedumpfile is only available as shared library which breaks kdump functionality
After looking around and chatting with nvo, here is what is needed to fix this problem : 1) Add a dependancy to the linux-crashdump meta package to the makedumpfile-static package 2) Modify the /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-bottom/0_kdump script to use the static version of makedumpfile (patch in the work) 3) Do a MIR request to have makedumpfile-static included in MAIN I need to find out if the MIR needs to be a separated Bug request -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/851945 Title: P3:[Natty]:makedumpfile is only available as shared library which breaks kdump functionality To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/makedumpfile/+bug/851945/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
