Morning folks! For those who watch WireGuard, Jason Donenfeld is giving the Canonical kernel team a damn roasting after they bungled a Provides statement in about half of their Linux kernel manifests... which borks certain systems running WireGuard. For example, systems with the linux-image-oem kernel will try to install the linux-image-gke kernel (meant for the Google Kubernetes Engine), in order to receive the wireguard-modules package, leading to Proper Breakage. Donenfeld: "I'll note that this is at least the third time Canonical has forgotten the "Provides:" line for kernel packages. I'd highly recommend they put some time into double checking their procedures. [...] Usually things go quite a bit better with the WireGuard side of things, but this seems pretty par for the course with _Ubuntu_ and Canonical's kernel team. We've had perpetual issues over the last 6 months with getting Canonical to release high quality packages in a timely manner. A pretty large portion of my time is spent dealing with these bugs and Ubuntu in general." Looks like Canonical's kernel packaging team are already working on it, after Jason Donenfeld escalated a bug report earlier this morning.
