It's happening to me now on a RPI3 with Ubuntu 16.04 armhf. Yesterday evening I've deleted two old ext3 partitions to make room for a small BTRFS RAID1 2x 20 Gb partitions and now I was looking for the PARTUUID to write it in cmdline.txt. So blkid had plenty of time to reflect the new layout.
ii util-linux 2.27.1-6ubuntu3.6 armhf miscellaneous system utilities I've tried also with partprobe, to no avail. ii libparted2:armhf 3.2-15 armhf disk partition manipulator - shared library ii parted 3.2-15 armhf disk partition manipulator Both fdisk and parted print the correct layout. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to e2fsprogs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137314 Title: blkid shows outdated / wrong UUID Status in e2fsprogs package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: libblkid1 blkid shows outdated and wrong information on UUID and label for partitions that were reformatted after initial installation. After reformatting and relabeling partitions, blkid does not reflect the change (not even after reboot) and delivers misleading information about which UUID to put in /etc/fstab to mount the partition by UUID. This causes boot failures on systems which were restored by partition- imaging software that possibly changes the UUID of the restored partition (which is necessary, if there is already another partition present with the same UUID). Also installation of a second Linux system on the same Computer regularly reformats the swap-space, so the previously installed system doesn't find its swap anymore.
