Ah. OK. I guess I can tinker with those files so that it doesn't attempt to build that. I'm considering upgrading to 18.04 (LTS) before the end of the year anyway. Thanks for your attention. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to

Aw, heck, probably not. All I use VirtualBox for is once in a while tinkering with old Windows installations, like Windows XP and Windows 98. It probably doesn't need this legacy vmxnet module. The builds went fine with 4.13.0-45-generic and less. I noticed you were building for 4.4. This was

The initial report of this was nearly six years ago. If this program is so "dead," I have to wonder why here in late Sep. 2016 on an up-to-date Raspbian system this is still the default app run when Xfce users run the "Users and Groups" item on the System main menu. I guess it's either not as dead

I was surprised to find it running after booting my system. Apparently it's still used for Xorg session management, like "/sbin/upstart --user" in the ps(1) listing. My guess is that lightdm or something else that initiates your X session either by default, or is configured to, run /sbin/upstart

It's nice to see it's patched for the immediate problem and will probably eventually make it into the Precise updates. What I did to see what was happening was to use Wireshark. It was getting a 301 response (or was that 302?). Wouldn't it be nicer if the plugin properly followed redirects such

IMHO, this isn't a GRUB2 (grub-pc) bug, it is the documented behavior of the shell used to generate the configuration file (default grub.cfg). So-called here-documents (used extensively in the distributed default scripts) are documented to interpolate shell variables, consume quoting, etc. Perhaps
