Package: linux-base Version: 4.5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I am using grub with `check_signatures` set to `enforce`. This requires gpg- style detached signatures in the boot directory. `linux-version` incorrectly lists these signatures as kernel versions. Recently, initramfs-tools seems to have switched to using linux-version to get the most recent kernel version and so now `update-initramfs` doesn't work unless I remove these files first. $ ls -l /boot/vmlinuz* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4970256 Jun 22 10:50 /boot/vmlinuz-4.16.0-2-amd64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 566 Jul 1 18:08 /boot/vmlinuz-4.16.0-2-amd64.sig -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5044080 Jul 20 22:08 /boot/vmlinuz-4.17.0-1-amd64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 566 Jul 23 14:41 /boot/vmlinuz-4.17.0-1-amd64.sig $ linux-version list 4.16.0-2-amd64 4.16.0-2-amd64.sig 4.17.0-1-amd64 4.17.0-1-amd64.sig -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (10, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.17.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages linux-base depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.69 linux-base recommends no packages. linux-base suggests no packages. -- debconf information: linux-base/removing-title: linux-base/removing-running-kernel: true
