Thanks Mauricio for the answer. Thanks for clarifying that it was meant as external documentation! I don't think one wants to backport the newer concurrent code to Trusty, the change would be too unstable for an SRU I'd assume. So for now I'll consider the bug "opinion", that way it can serve as a searchable doc of this issue and a workaround, but it is more clear that it isn't really actionable to "solve" it.
As a suggestion, you might consider also creating an askubuntu.com entry for it as I have seen people heading there first for common "X doesn't work what could I do" cases. ** Changed in: multipath-tools (Ubuntu Trusty) Status: New => Opinion -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1467989 Title: Boot issues running multipath with a large number of paths To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1467989/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
