description |
The following non-fatal error is output during snap-confine installation:
dpkg: error: --compare-versions takes three arguments: <version> <relation> <version>
Below log is from a manual install to reproduce the issue, but this first occurred during upgrade of snapd/ubuntu-core-launcher on xenial-proposed which caused snap-confine to be installed.

[Impact]
The snap-confine package used to contain an apparmor profile for 'ubuntu-core-launcher' that is no longer confined and is simply a symlink to snap-confine itself.
The apparmor profile for ubuntu-core-launcher was stored in /etc/apparmor.d/. This profile had to be removed on package upgrades to let the application work as expected. Due to a bug in dpkg the dpkg rm_conffile helper was buggy and didn't run as documented or as expected.
[Test Case]
Upgrade from earlier versions of ubuntu-core-launcher should work correctly when updated to snap-confine. After the upgrade process snap applications can be started (e.g. hello-world snap).
[Regression Potential]
I did not evaluate regression potential as the fix is already released in Ubuntu Xenial and this bug update is just to facilitate the complete upgrade to 1.0.41 which.
[Other Info]
* This bug is a part of a major SRU that brings snap-confine in Ubuntu 16.04 in line with the current upstream release 1.0.41.
* This bug was included in an earlier SRU and is now fixed in Ubuntu. I am updating the template here to ensure that the process is fully documented from 1.0.38 all the way up to the current upstream release 1.0.41.
* snap-confine is technically an integral part of snapd which has an SRU exception and is allowed to introduce new features and take advantage of accelerated procedure. For more information see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SnapdUpdates
