Yes. > If so, what is vpdupdate binary needed for ? Do we still need to keep it > packaged ? Yes. Let me try to make it clear. vpdupdate command collect system vpd from various source and creates static sqlite db under /var/lib/lsvpd and everytime when something changes we had to run this command manually. Sometime back we added udev script to detect changes in sysfs and run vpdupdate automatically next time whenever lscfg/lsvpd is ran. Hence I'm thinking lets not run this command during install. Lets defer until user calls lsvpd/lscfg first time. -Vasant -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1720304 Title: lsvpd: Do not run vpdupdate during installation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-systems/+bug/1720304/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
