Public bug reported: In the move from 2.28-5ubuntu2 and 2.28.1-1ubuntu1 of util-linux we see a regression when asking kpartx to remove kernel partition mappings where the appear to remain.
Context: We create and modify disk images heavily. The example recreate creates a 2GB disk image with a single partition. From that 2GB image we will resize it to 8GB and grow the partition/filesystem. This stopped working in yakkety with 2.28.1-1ubuntu1. We do have a work-around which is call growpart on the file rather on the loopback device. Recreate script is attached. ** Affects: util-linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "recreate.sh" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1618525/+attachment/4730929/+files/recreate.sh -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1618525 Title: Failure to remove kernel partition mappings in yakkety (2.28.1-1ubuntu1) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/1618525/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
