Pending kernel upgrade! Running kernel version: 6.8.0-37-generic Diagnostics: The currently running kernel version is not the expected kernel version 6.8.0-38-generic. Restarting the system to load the new kernel will not be handled automatically, so you should consider rebooting. No services need to be restarted. No containers need to be restarted. No user sessions are running outdated binaries. No VM guests are running outdated hypervisor (qemu) binaries on this host. root@needrestart-motd:~/needrestart-3.6# test ! -x /run/reboot-required || echo test failed root@needrestart-motd:~/needrestart-3.6# ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-noble ** Tags added: verification-done verification-done-noble -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2065863 Title: needrestart causes kernel upgrade messages in motd To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/needrestart/+bug/2065863/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
