Package: ifupdown2 Version: 1.2.2-1 Severity: serious Justification: renders system unusable
Hello, with this package and this version, my system comes up without any networking configured, giving an error message at startup Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: networking: Configuring network interfaces Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: Traceback (most recent call last): Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: File "/sbin/ifup", line 26, in <module> Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: from ifupdown.log import log Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: File "/usr/share/ifupdown2/ifupdown/log.py", line 163, in <module> Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: log = Log() Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: File "/usr/share/ifupdown2/ifupdown/log.py", line 65, in __init__ Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: self.syslog_handler = logging.handlers.SysLogHandler(address=address, facility=facility) Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/logging/handlers.py", line 761, in __init__ Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: self._connect_unixsocket(address) Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/logging/handlers.py", line 804, in _connect_unixsocket Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: self.socket.connect(address) Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/socket.py", line 228, in meth Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: return getattr(self._sock,name)(*args) Fri Dec 28 10:38:52 2018: socket.error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory My system is running on sysvinit. An acceptable proposal would be to log to stderr until /dev/log has been setup The init script used looks as follows: ## BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: networking ifupdown # Required-Start: mountkernfs $local_fs urandom $syslog # Required-Stop: $local_fs # Default-Start: S # Default-Stop: 0 6 # Short-Description: Raise network interfaces. # Description: Prepare /run/network directory, ifstate file and raise network interfaces, or take them down. ### END INIT INFO exec /usr/share/ifupdown2/sbin/start-networking "$@" Bye, Joerg
