[Bug 1293152] Re: fstrim-all weekly cron generate noise when hdparm isn't installed or on a VM; noisy in VMs

[Stéphane Graber]

Hello Simon, or anyone else affected,

Accepted util-linux into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-
linux/2.20.1-5.1ubuntu20.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Title:
  fstrim-all weekly cron generate noise when hdparm isn't installed or
  on a VM; noisy in VMs

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “util-linux” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed
Status in “util-linux” source package in Utopic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Every week, the fstrim-all cron job sends such email alert to the
  admin if hdparm isn't available:

    hdparm not available, cannot TRIM

  The cron job doesn't fail, thanks to LP: #1278048, but those emails
  are probably not very useful to the admin.
