[SOLVED] DSA-4187-1 Security Update

Nili · 2018-05-03 10:22:44

Hello!

Debian released an Security Update for Linux Kernel Image on 01 May 2018

I believe we should taken it sometime later, today is the second day but i still see "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded." on my console.

Debian said :

For the oldstable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in version 3.16.56-1

While i am still on :

Linux kernel 3.16.0-4-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.16.51-3 (2017-12-13) i686 GNU/Linux

This absence has any reason?

This is my sources list

deb http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ jessie main non-free contrib
deb-src http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ jessie main non-free contrib

# jessie-security, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ jessie-security main contrib non-free
deb-src http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ jessie-security main contrib non-free

# jessie-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free

# Devuan repositories
deb http://packages.devuan.org/merged jessie main contrib non-free
deb-src http://packages.devuan.org/merged jessie main contrib non-free

Usually i have taken immediately the security updates it never lasted two days.
Thanks for your feedback.

Edited: cleared i686 from title

Automatic kernel upgrades only come in if one has the metapackage installed, which you don't have.

Do this: sudo apt-get install linux-image-686-pae then try upgrading your system again. Now (and going forward) you will get the kernel security upgrades automatically

(One more question: Do you use GRUB and have multiple OSs installed? If so and if your primary OS--the first one listed in GRUB--is something other than Jessie, you'll need to manually do sudo update-grub in your primary OS in order for GRUB to be "aware" that Jessie has a new kernel.)

Indeed i don't have "linux-image-686-pae" installed. I have installed right, got the update itself. Thanks

Yes, i use GRUB, but don't have multiple OS's installed.
I only have plain Jessie Devuan NETINS customized that listen fine on GRUB settings.

I consider solved my request regarding Kernel Security Update. Thanks GNUser for explained and suggested
