[Bug 1674532] Re: Ubuntu 14.04 broken during PXE boot

[Steve Beattie]

Hi, I've put test glibc packages in the ubuntu-security-proposed ppa
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-security-
proposed/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages that revert the fix for
CVE-2015-5180. If someone could test that the udeb's from there don't
break your pxe install that would be great.

Quite likely what will happen is if the libc6-udeb is manually installed
after it breaks and the install is continued on successfully, another
failure will happen when the libnss-dns-udeb is pulled from the ubuntu
archive, and will likely need to also be manually installed.

Title:
  Ubuntu 14.04 broken during PXE boot

Status in eglibc package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After installing the libc6_2.19-0ubuntu6.10_amd64_udeb package during
  the automated install of ubuntu 14.04.5, the system was suddenly
  unable to resolve hostnames via dns. Installing -0ubuntu6.9 resolved
  the issue. Reinstalling -ubuntu6.10 broke the system again.

  I note that -ubuntu6.10 was recently added to the archive.

  I am currently unable to install Ubuntu 14.04.5.
