[Andreas Hasenack]

Hello Simon, or anyone else affected,

Accepted livecd-rootfs into jammy-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-
rootfs/2.765.44 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)

-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

  buildd/h/02-disk-image-uefi.binary fails on jammy

  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [ impact ]

   * In replacing kpartx with losetup, earlier this year, grub-install
     (grub-probe) started failing for bootable uefi buildd images on jammy.
     This failure started around 2024-01-14.

   * uefi buildd images don't build on jammy. Later suites have a different code
     path (in grub-core/osdep/linux/hostdisk) which doesn't call udevadm anymore.

   * udev was getting installed in later hooks. Adding it earlier isn't
     altering the resulting artifact.

  [ test plan ]

   * live-build with --series=jammy --project ubuntu-base --subproject
  buildd --image-format ext4 --image-target all

   * uefi image should build and be bootable from qemu

  [ where problems could occur ]

   * affected hook is specific to buildd

   * considering udev is now installed in an earlier buildd hook, it could
     technically interfere with later build steps. Recent additions of flock
     address some of the udev races but this could surface more.
