SRU Justification Impact - linux-base conflicts with Ubuntu kernel tools packages Patch Description: delete the reference to /usr/bin/perf
Remove /usr/bin/perf from this package as it conflicts with the Ubuntu kernel tools package linux-tools-common (which provides the real /usr/bin/perf). I can think of no reason why this should cause a problem. /usr/bin/perf is kernel ABI version specific, therefore it can only be provided by the correct version of linux-tools-$version-$abi. ** Changed in: linux-base (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => In Progress ** Changed in: linux-base (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Tim Gardner (timg-tpi) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Won't Fix ** Changed in: linux-meta (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux-base (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux-meta (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: High Assignee: Andy Whitcroft (apw) Status: Won't Fix ** Also affects: linux-base (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: High Assignee: Tim Gardner (timg-tpi) Status: In Progress ** Also affects: linux-meta (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Precise) Status: New => Won't Fix ** Changed in: linux-base (Ubuntu Precise) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: linux-meta (Ubuntu Precise) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: linux-base (Ubuntu Precise) Assignee: (unassigned) => Tim Gardner (timg-tpi) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/931353 Title: package linux-tools-common (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/perf', which is also in package linux- base 3.3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/931353/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
