Ok, I see now. Commit 7b2b160da7661bb2ade3f924b1bd3e3084e53341 in the stable tree was backported from b7649158a0d241f8d53d13ff7441858539e16656. I'll see if this backport will cherry-pick cleanly into upstream 3.8. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel

Do you recall what specific version of 3.8 you used? The current version, 3.8.0-32 does not allow a clean cherry-pick. It was dropped from upstream stable 3.8 because of all the changes required to back port it. One other note, the 3.8 kernel is not an LTS release. The 3.2 kernel is the last

The commit 7b2b160da7661bb2ade3f924b1bd3e3084e53341 cherry-picked cleanly on top of the 3.8 LTS tree. I assumed it didn't make the official 3.8 stable branch because it was EOL by the time it was proposed for stable. Since we don't see the problem when we are on the 3.5 LTS kernel we didn't try

Did you perform a backport of commit 7b2b160da7661bb2ade3f924b1bd3e3084e53341 ( Upstream commit: b7649158a0d241f8d53d13ff7441858539e16656)? It seems upstream commit b764915 was cc'd to stable, but was dropped from all but the 3.10 stable tree due to the complexity of the backport. ** Tags

I can't install apport on the original system where this problem was observed (Precise + LTS kernel) but I have reproduced it on a Raring install with 3.8.0-31-generic and submitted the apport information from that environment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of
