Older version in bionic than in artful

[Anders Kaseorg]

These packages have an older version in bionic than in artful:

libvorbisidec 1.0.2+svn18153-1+deb9u1 < 1.0.2+svn18153-1+deb9u1build0.17.10.1
nvidia-graphics-drivers-384 384.111-0ubuntu1 < 384.130-0ubuntu0.17.10.1

The latter is older than in xenial, too.

Shouldn’t there be an automated check for this? (See also: bug 1780679, bug 1780680.)

[Marc Deslauriers (mdeslaur)]

Bionic has nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 which provides transitional packages for the nvidia-graphics-drivers-384 binary packages.

In other words, the nvidia-graphics-drivers-384 package in bionic isn't used.

[Marc Deslauriers (mdeslaur)]

libvorbisidec is an actual issue, and the bionic version does need a no-change rebuild.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package libvorbisidec - 1.0.2+svn18153-1+deb9u1build0.18.04.1

---------------
libvorbisidec (1.0.2+svn18153-1+deb9u1build0.18.04.1) bionic-security; urgency=medium

  * No change rebuild to bump version higher than artful (LP: #1780681)
