** Attachment added: "Demonstration of behavior of the patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1742378/+attachment/5034118/+files/check_power_test.sh -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1742378 Title: Slight glitch in /etc/cron.daily/apt-compat Ubuntu 16.04.3 in apt-1.2.24 Status in apt package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I accidentally stumbled across this. If in line 22 on_ac_power returns a non zero exit code the next line is never reached. Instead, the shell terminates immediately with that non zero exit code because of "set -e" in line 3. In this script it does not pose a problem because the shell is asked to exit anyway if check_power() returns non zero but it works differently than is apparently intended (concluding from the logic). I will attach a suggest patch and a demo illustrating that the patch works as the original script seems to intend to.
