Public bug reported: Binary package hint: usb-creator
I've created a bootable USB stick from the latest natty-desktop- amd64.iso. Steps to repro: 1. Select the natty-desktop-amd64.iso 2. Erase the USB stick (an 8GB Kingston DataTraveller) 3. Increase reserved extra space to 4.0GB 4. Click Make Startup Disk 5. Boot from the USB stick 6. Perform an apt-get update and apt-get upgrade 7. Run dpkg -s with a package that was upgraded (in my case, I picked "findutils") 8. Note the version number (mine was 4.4.2-1ubuntu3) 9. Reboot from the USB stick 10. Run dpkg -s on the same package Expected result: The same version number is displayed Actual result: An earlier version number is displayed, indicating the package update was not persistent ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: usb-creator-gtk 0.2.22.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-29.57-generic 2.6.32.28+drm33.13 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-29-generic x86_64 Architecture: amd64 CheckboxSubmission: 75cac9d35a12b89a7a20891c500c936b CheckboxSystem: 36acc479c47ece291c12af9d42b8b11e Date: Thu Feb 10 10:50:35 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" - Beta amd64 (20100318) PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: LANG=en_CA.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: usb-creator ** Affects: usb-creator (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug lucid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/716605 Title: Software updates not persistent -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
