This means that in early boot the boot is blocked until the crng is initialized to "level=1" which on virtual machines may take some time. Upstream fixed this in https://github.com/karelzak/util- linux/commit/a9cf659e0508c1f56813a7d74c64f67bbc962538 and we should just backport the fix. [Impact] * Makes systems that use libuuid in early boot hang [Test Case] * boot a fresh core18 system with kernel 4.15 [Regression Potential] * little, change is very targeted This is uploaded to the bionic-proposed queue now.
