pollinate update
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 15.04
- Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Summary:
The system would not have expected entropy available.
Software Description:
- pollinate: seed the pseudo random number generator in virtual machines
Details:
USN-2709-1 updated pollinate's certificate for entropy.ubuntu.com but did
not include a new certificate authority certificate.
This update fixes the problem.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Original advisory details:
The pollinate package bundles the certificate for entropy.ubuntu.com. This
update refreshes the certificate to match the new certificate for the
server.
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 15.04:
pollinate 4.11-0ubuntu2.2
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:
pollinate 4.7-0ubuntu1.4
In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
