Well, there will be a non-trivial number of users who have modified their menu.lst boot stanzas by hand inconsistent with the magic comments, causing the ucf prompt to trigger on installation of a new kernel; and some of these users will choose the 'three-way merge' option; and some of these three-way merges will fail, which with the version of ucf in hardy will cause an immediate abort.
But that's not related to the original bug report here; and fixing this bug only improves the error feedback, it's not going to make update-grub magically able to avoid conflicts when doing a three-way merge. -- ucf < 3.006 breaks update-grub in hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226708 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
