<DIV>Hi,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>thanks a lot for the fast bugfix and backport to 15.04.</DIV>
<DIV>I thought about to immediately try if the bugfix is working.</DIV>
<DIV>My idea is to use the power of the snappy system_a/system_b concept and install ubuntu-core 15.04 edge to system_b partition.</DIV>
<DIV>Until now my BeagleBone Black is on 15.04 stable (initially on both system partitions).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I read in the channel guide (<A href="https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/guides/channels/">https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/guides/channels/</A>) that snappy supports switching between the channels:</DIV>

<DIV>I have just backported both patches into the 15.04 snappy PPA and rolled</DIV>
<DIV>a new 15.04/edge image so independently of the SRU status this fix will</DIV>
<DIV>be in the 15.04.3 release.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In case someone wants to test the functionality, you can now just build</DIV>
<DIV>an image from 15.04 with the --channel=edge option.</DIV>
