util-linux 2.38-4ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

util-linux (2.38-4ubuntu1) kinetic; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
    - Build hwclock with audit support.
    - Drop debian/hwclock.rules and debian/util-linux.hwclock.default, recent
      kernels sync the RTC automatically.
    - Add sulogin-fallback-static-sh.patch: Add support for /bin/static-sh as
      fallback if the regular shell fails to execute. Patch ported from
      sysvinit. (see LP #505887)
    - Add sulogin-lockedpwd.patch: Make sure file systems can be fixed on
      machines with locked root accounts (as Ubuntu does by default). Don't
      require --force for sulogin.
  * Dropped changes, included upstream:
    - Revert the change to libsmartcols that outputs shell parsable column
      names when -P / --pairs is used in lsblk. The change breaks older
      MAAS and curtin versions, such that they cannot deploy Jammy.
      (LP: #1961542)
      - d/p/ubuntu/lp-1961542-Revert-libsmartcols-sanitize-variable-names-on-ex.patch
    - SECURITY UPDATE: Unauthorized unmount of FUSE filesystems belonging to
      users with similar uid
      - debian/patches/upstream/CVE-2021-3995-1.patch: make sure mem2strcpy()
        buffer is zeroized in include/strutils.h.
      - debian/patches/upstream/CVE-2021-3995-2.patch: fix UID check for FUSE
        umount in libmount/src/context_umount.c, libmount/src/mountP.h,
        libmount/src/optstr.c.
      - CVE-2021-3995
    - SECURITY UPDATE: Unauthorized unmount in util-linux's libmount
      - debian/patches/upstream/CVE-2021-3996-1.patch: remove support for
        deleted mount table entries in libmount/src/tab_parse.c.
      - debian/patches/upstream/CVE-2021-3996-2.patch: update mountinfo files
        in tests/*.
      - CVE-2021-3996
    - Update translations after changes to HiFive partition names
  * Stop cleaning up weekly fstrim cron file as it has been gone since
    Bionic.

Binary packages built by this source

bsdextrautils: extra utilities from 4.4BSD-Lite

 This package contains some extra BSD utilities: col, colcrt, colrm, column,
 hd, hexdump, look, ul and write.
 Other BSD utilities are provided by bsdutils and calendar.

bsdextrautils-dbgsym: debug symbols for bsdextrautils
bsdutils: basic utilities from 4.4BSD-Lite

 This package contains the bare minimum of BSD utilities needed for a Debian
 system: logger, renice, script, scriptlive, scriptreplay and wall. The
 remaining standard BSD utilities are provided by bsdextrautils.

bsdutils-dbgsym: debug symbols for bsdutils
eject: ejects CDs and operates CD-Changers under Linux

 This program will eject CD-ROMs (assuming your drive supports the CDROMEJECT
 ioctl). It also allows setting the autoeject feature.
 .
 On supported ATAPI/IDE multi-disc CD-ROM changers, it allows changing
 the active disc.
 .
 You can also use eject to properly disconnect external mass-storage
 devices like digital cameras or portable music players.

eject-dbgsym: debug symbols for eject
fdisk: collection of partitioning utilities

 This package contains the classic fdisk, sfdisk and cfdisk partitioning
 utilities from the util-linux suite.
 .
 The utilities included in this package allow you to partition
 your hard disk. The utilities supports both modern and legacy
 partition tables (eg. GPT, MBR, etc).
 .
 The fdisk utility is the classical text-mode utility.
 The cfdisk utilitity gives a more userfriendly curses based interface.
 The sfdisk utility is mostly for automation and scripting uses.

fdisk-dbgsym: debug symbols for fdisk
libblkid-dev: block device ID library - headers

 The blkid library allows system programs such as fsck and mount to
 quickly and easily find block devices by filesystem UUID or label.
 This allows system administrators to avoid specifying filesystems by
 hard-coded device names and use a logical naming system instead.
 .
 This package contains the development environment for the blkid library.

libblkid1: block device ID library

 The blkid library allows system programs such as fsck and mount to
 quickly and easily find block devices by filesystem UUID or label.
 This allows system administrators to avoid specifying filesystems by
 hard-coded device names and use a logical naming system instead.

libblkid1-dbgsym: debug symbols for libblkid1
libfdisk-dev: fdisk partitioning library - headers

 The libfdisk library is used for manipulating partition tables. It is
 the core of the fdisk, cfdisk, and sfdisk tools.
 .
 This package contains the development environment for the fdisk library.

libfdisk1: fdisk partitioning library

 The libfdisk library is used for manipulating partition tables. It is
 the core of the fdisk, cfdisk, and sfdisk tools.

libfdisk1-dbgsym: debug symbols for libfdisk1
libmount-dev: device mounting library - headers

 This device mounting library is used by mount and umount helpers.
 .
 This package contains the development environment for the mount library.

libmount1: device mounting library

 This device mounting library is used by mount and umount helpers.

libmount1-dbgsym: debug symbols for libmount1
libsmartcols-dev: smart column output alignment library - headers

 This smart column output alignment library is used by fdisk utilities.
 .
 This package contains the development environment for the mount library.

libsmartcols1: smart column output alignment library

 This smart column output alignment library is used by fdisk utilities.

libsmartcols1-dbgsym: debug symbols for libsmartcols1
libuuid1: Universally Unique ID library

 The libuuid library generates and parses 128-bit Universally Unique
 IDs (UUIDs). A UUID is an identifier that is unique within the space
 of all such identifiers across both space and time. It can be used for
 multiple purposes, from tagging objects with an extremely short lifetime
 to reliably identifying very persistent objects across a network.
 .
 See RFC 4122 for more information.

libuuid1-dbgsym: debug symbols for libuuid1
mount: tools for mounting and manipulating filesystems

 This package provides the mount(8), umount(8), swapon(8),
 swapoff(8), and losetup(8) commands.

mount-dbgsym: debug symbols for mount
rfkill: tool for enabling and disabling wireless devices

 rfkill is a simple tool for accessing the Linux rfkill device interface,
 which is used to enable and disable wireless networking devices, typically
 WLAN, Bluetooth and mobile broadband.

rfkill-dbgsym: debug symbols for rfkill
util-linux: miscellaneous system utilities

 This package contains a number of important utilities, most of which
 are oriented towards maintenance of your system. Some of the more
 important utilities included in this package allow you to view kernel
 messages, create new filesystems, view block device information,
 interface with real time clock, etc.

util-linux-dbgsym: debug symbols for util-linux
util-linux-extra: interactive login tools

 Tools commonly found on systems where humans login interactively,
 or are needed with non-standard system configurations.

util-linux-locales: locales files for util-linux

 This package contains the internationalization files for the util-linux
 package.

 messages in other languages than English.

uuid-dev: Universally Unique ID library - headers and static libraries

 The libuuid library generates and parses 128-bit Universally Unique IDs
 (UUIDs). See RFC 4122 for more information.
 .
 This package contains the development environment for the uuid library.

uuid-runtime: runtime components for the Universally Unique ID library

 The libuuid library generates and parses 128-bit Universally Unique
 IDs (UUIDs). A UUID is an identifier that is unique within the space
 of all such identifiers across both space and time. It can be used for
 multiple purposes, from tagging objects with an extremely short lifetime
 to reliably identifying very persistent objects across a network.
 .
 See RFC 4122 for more information.
 .
 This package contains the uuidgen program and the uuidd daemon.
 .
 The uuidd daemon is used to generate UUIDs, especially time-based
 UUIDs, in a secure and guaranteed-unique fashion, even in the face of
 large numbers of threads trying to grab UUIDs running on different CPUs.
 It is used by libuuid as well as the uuidgen program.
