The “'s” in sbin stands for superuser privileges. Programs in sbin directories are meant to be used by user root or by normal users with the sudo command

/bin/sbinFor binaries which need to be usable before the /usr partition is mounted
/usr/bin/usr/sbinGeneral, system-wide binaries

Security updates

Lifespan

Kernel versions

Status:

  • linux-image-4.19.0-16-amd64 is installed and active
  • linux-image-4.19.0-17-amd64 is available for updating to

We did

$ uname -r
4.19.0-17-amd64

Where we expected (version 16, not 17)

4.19.0-16-amd64

Is this a bug or did we miss something?
