Package: orphan-sysvinit-scripts
Version: 0.21
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
I am using mdadm-based raid mirrors for my / file systems on some servers.
I am not using systemd, but this package (orphan-sysvinit-scripts) was already
installed. After an upgrade to trixie on one such system, it does not boot.
I have currently no access to its console...
On a second similar system (this) I had also performed the update but not yet
rebooted...
On investigation, the file /etc/init.d/mdadm is missing.
As far as I can see, this should be installed by
/usr/lib/orphan-sysvinit-scripts/update_init_d.sh
if the file
/lib/systemd/system/mdadm.service
exists. However, that file does not exist. It looks like it would have come
from the mdadm package in bookworm [1], but no longer in trixie [2].
I suppose this breaks the heuristic in this package for when to install the
mdadm init scripts.
If I cheat a bit and do 'touch /lib/systemd/system/mdadm.service'
followed by running '/usr/lib/orphan-sysvinit-scripts/update_init_d.sh'
then /etc/init.d/mdadm is at least created.
And similary for mdadm-waitidle.service to get mdadm-waitidle.
I have not tested yet if this is sufficient to successfully reboot the system.
(Will only reboot when being physically at the machines. :) )
