Description of the change
This is a patch on a plate - Jon Grimm got the fix pretty much ready to go but didn't finish the SRU. I've reproduced the original issue and verified the fix from his PPA. The patch lacked DEP3 and had an incorrect version number, and the SRU paperwork needed filled in. I've taken care of all that and think this is ready to go.
I anticipate one counter-argument is that xenial is quite old now, however note that the userbase for this type of issue (puppet, php) are also the audience for ESM so I could imagine this bug could still be a problem even once xenial is out of support. The fix is quite trivial and has very little regression risk.
To post a comment you must log in.
The changes LGTM and I agreed that the regression risk seems low.
Patch is upstream and in later version and all else that is usually needed.
It seems the bug was dead by a lack of feedback or a local reproducer. Since you got the latter we are good.
+1 for resolving this.
P.S. you will get bonus points if you can tell me at standup why "patch on a plate" by Jon is different than "general Community patch on a plate" :-)
