[Bug 1578160] Re: /etc/cron.daily/sysstat: xargs: xz: No such file or directory

 

Since this was fixed in Debian in 11.3.2-1 and Yakkety has 11.3.3-1,
marking Fix Released to reflect Yakkety and adding a task for Xenial.

TheSeal, thank you for providing this patch and subscribing ~ubuntu-
sponsors. The patch itself looks good but we need a little more
paperwork for updates to stable releases to reduce regression risk to
users. Please see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure. In particular,
the patch should target xenial, should refer to this bug so that it
auto-closes, and the SRU paperwork needs to be added to this bug.

Are you interested in fixing this up? If not, I'd like to pass this bug
to someone else as it's a good candidate to help prospective developers
become familiar with the SRU process.

Title:
  /etc/cron.daily/sysstat: xargs: xz: No such file or directory

Status in sysstat package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in sysstat source package in Xenial:
  Triaged
Status in sysstat package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Sysstat has changed the default compression from bzip2 to xz but the packages is lack of depend of the xz-utils.
  This causes the daily cronjob to fail with:

  /etc/cron.daily/sysstat:
  xargs: xz: No such file or directory

  This has been fixed in the Debian package by depending on the correct compression package.
