** Description changed:
* Impact
When the U1 account credential expire it's not possible to disable livepatch
* Test case
- install/enable livepatch (from the first login wizard or software-properties)
- - invalidate your U1 credentials (unsure if there is a manual way to do that?)
+ - invalidate your U1 credentials:
+ * open "Password and Keys"
+ * Search for an entry containing "ubuntusso"
+ * Right click and open "Properties"
+ * Show the password entry
+ * Modify the 'macaroon' field (e.g. add a 1 at the beginning of the string so you can easily remote it later)
- open software-properties
-> the livepatch status should be marked as enable but the control
active so it's possible to disable it
* Regression potential
Check that the software-properties checkbox reflect the correct status
when the account are valid and invalid
-
----------------
I enabled LivePatch via gnome-initial-setup and added my U1 account to
g-o-a.
My U1 account gets marked as expired quite often. When it's expired the
LP entry in Software & Updates is not ticked to show that LP is running.
When my u1 account is re-authenticated then everything shows correctly.
This could make it seem that LivePatch does not run if your account
expires, which is not the case.
