Today livepatch got updated automatically and right after the update, the following errors started appearing in the journal log.

Do you know anything about this?
Thank you.

Update:

The latest canonical-livepatch version 10.5.4 revision 202 corrects the errors. The issue doesn't seem to exist any more.

We are seeing the same thing. I think this is a bad update. Not sure what to do about it at the moment though as I think we ultimately need to wait for a patch :-/

As a workaround you can roll back to the previous snap on the system. List the installed snaps with `snap list canonical-livepatch --all` and then roll back with `sudo snap revert canonical-livepatch --revision 164`.

@Dogsbody, Yes, it's definitely a bad update. The errors appear on a second computer too here now. I don't know if we have to revert to the old revision though. I think that despite the date error, it otherwise works. I can't be sure though, yet.

There's [a bug report about this on Launchpad](https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/2015734).

Thanks @Dogsbody for their comment with a workaround:

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
