[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza (kleber-souza)]

Certification tests not needed to be redone for this re-spin, leveraging the results from the previous release (lp 1944933).

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza (kleber-souza)]

Regression tests completed successfully. The issue that this re-spin is fixing (lp 1946149) can also be confirmed to be not reproducible anymore.

Manually overriding the regression-testing task.

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza (kleber-souza)]

Kernel ready for release. Setting kernel-signoff to 'Fix Released'.

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza (kleber-souza)]

Overriding -updates promotion hold to unblock the release. The derivative snaps will be tested and released later.
