I did an "echo 0 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks" on the host and
reran the update which proceeded and installed the rest of the package
updates but along the way I got this...
Failed to set capabilities on file `/usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt' (Invalid argument)
The value of the capability argument is not permitted for a file. Or the file is not a regular (non-symlink) file
~ ls -l /usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 35248 Feb 14 22:41 /usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt
~ lsattr /usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt
---------------- /usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt
~ getcap -v /usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt
/usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt
Whereas on the xenial host I get...
~ getcap -v /usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt
/usr/bin/systemd-detect-virt = cap_dac_override,cap_sys_ptrace+ep
So is no one else reporting this problem when upgrading to systemd_229-1ubuntu2?
