[Bug 1579580] Re: ureadahead reports relative path errors in journalctl output

[Robie Basak]

The version string pattern is very odd, but I guess it's OK given that
ureadahead was never published in Debian and the Ubuntu strings have
never contained "ubuntu" anyway. Similarly I'd prefer an additional "."
to indicate an SRU but the version numbering is so odd anyway it's not
clear how to do that. Add -ubuntu0.1? That could be even more confusing.
So I'll just accept as-is as I don't see any harm with 0.100.0-21.

** Changed in: ureadahead (Ubuntu Bionic)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-bionic

Title:
  ureadahead reports relative path errors in journalctl output

Status in ureadahead package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in ureadahead source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [impact]

  ureadahead logs thousands of lines of useless noise on each boot.

  [test case]

  install bionic on physical hardware (ureadhead doesn't run under virt)
  and check the boot logs:

  #journalctl -m | grep ureadahead | wc -l
  30244

  [regression potential]

  very little, adding the -q param only causes libnih to switch to quiet
  mode.  any regression would likely be around ureadahead not starting
  at all, which really wouldn't be that bad anyway, as ureadahead has
  been removed entirely from Ubuntu starting in cosmic.

  [other info]

  original description:

  ureadahead reports relative path errors in my journalctl output.

  This is currently 4368 lines of useless annoyances in my logs.

  To see if you have this problem, run: journalctl -b | grep ureadahead
  | grep relative | wc -l

  Thanks
