Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: qemu-kvm
When recently upgrading qemu-kvm-extras-static, I received the following
output:
Setting up qemu-kvm-extras-static (0.12.5+noroms-0ubuntu6) ...
update-binfmts: warning: /var/lib/binfmts/arm does not exist; nothing to do!
Ideally the postinst should be smart enough to know when this transition
is required, and when it isn't required. This might be accomplished by
looking for outdated packages, running on "upgrade" rather than
"configure" and checking $2, checking for the existence of the
registration, etc. The || true prevents it from blocking install, but
it's a lot of text to store in the logs of a lot of systems to work
around a differently named, less flexible package that was present for
one release cycle (and no longer a supported one).
No huge rush, but this really ought be fixed prior to next LTS, so that
the LTS can be nice and clean.
