16.04.4

This is a brief summary of bugs fixed between Ubuntu 16.04.3 and 16.04.4. This summary covers only changes to packages in main and restricted, which account for all packages in the officially-supported CD images; there are further changes to various packages in universe and multiverse. Some of these fixes were by Ubuntu developers directly, while others were by upstream developers and backported to Ubuntu. For full details, see the individual package changelogs.

In addition to the bugs listed below, this update includes all security updates from the Ubuntu Security Notice list affecting Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS that were released up to and including February 28, 2018. The last update included was USN-3584-1 (sensible-utils vulnerability).
