Package: squid Version: 4.13-6 Severity: normal Looks like we still have a problem, the postrm auto added hooks by debhelper are disabling the service when you purge squid and squid-openssl is installed.
The problem lays here, but as I said, this is auto added code :-( if [ "$1" = "purge" ]; then if [ -x "/usr/bin/deb-systemd-helper" ]; then deb-systemd-helper purge 'squid.service' >/dev/null || true deb-systemd-helper unmask 'squid.service' >/dev/null || true fi fi Don't really know how to solve this in code right now, I'll have to think about it, I'm accepting ideas. Meanwhile, if you encounter this bug, just do: systemctl enable squid Regards. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=gl_ES.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=gl_ES.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages squid depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii init-system-helpers 1.60 ii libc6 2.31-9 ii libcap2 1:2.44-1 ii libcom-err2 1.46.2-1 ii libcrypt1 1:4.4.17-1 ii libdb5.3 5.3.28+dfsg1-0.8 ii libdbi-perl 1.643-3+b1 ii libecap3 1.0.1-3.2+b1 ii libexpat1 2.2.10-2 ii libgcc-s1 10.2.1-6 ii libgnutls30 3.7.0-7 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.18.3-4 ii libkrb5-3 1.18.3-4 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.57+dfsg-2 ii libltdl7 2.4.6-15 ii libnetfilter-conntrack3 1.0.8-3 ii libnettle8 3.7-2.1 ii libnsl2 1.3.0-2 ii libpam0g 1.4.0-6 ii libsasl2-2 2.1.27+dfsg-2.1 ii libstdc++6 10.2.1-6 ii libsystemd0 247.3-2 ii libxml2 2.9.10+dfsg-6.3+b1 ii logrotate 3.18.0-2 ii lsb-base 11.1.0 ii netbase 6.2 ii squid-common 4.13-6 Versions of packages squid recommends: ii ca-certificates 20210119 ii libcap2-bin 1:2.44-1 Versions of packages squid suggests: ii apparmor 2.13.6-9 pn resolvconf <none> pn smbclient <none> pn squid-cgi <none> pn squid-purge <none> pn squidclient <none> pn ufw <none> pn winbind <none> -- no debconf information
