Sorry!
Seems to have worked for me, but now I get the same error for /etc/init.d/nftables: Setting up orphan-sysvinit-scripts (0.10) ... /usr/bin/which: this version of `which' is deprecated; use `command -v' in scripts instead. /usr/bin/which: this version of `which' is deprecated; use `command -v' in scripts instead. Not replacing deleted config file /etc/init.d/nftables update-rc.d: error: initscript does not exist: /etc/init.d/nftables dpkg: error processing package orphan-sysvinit-scripts (--configure): installed orphan-sysvinit-scripts package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1 Shall I open a new bug or is this considered the same issue? Hmm, after reading the changelog entry for this fix: * Check for scripts still owned by another package (Closes: #998893) This sounds like a quite generic fix. > > dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern /etc/init.d/rsyslog > > Not replacing deleted config file /etc/init.d/rsyslog > > update-rc.d: error: initscript does not exist: /etc/init.d/rsyslog > > dpkg: error processing package orphan-sysvinit-scripts (--configure): > > installed orphan-sysvinit-scripts package post-installation script > > subprocess returned error exit status 1 > > Processing triggers for man-db (2.9.4-2) ... > > Errors were encountered while processing: > > orphan-sysvinit-scripts > > E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) > > I think the easiest fix is: > ln -s /usr/share/orphan-sysvinit-scripts/rsyslog /etc/init.d/rsyslog > > And then dpkg --pending --configure should work OK So I tried this for nftables as well, but it seems to have made things worse: # ln -s /usr/share/orphan-sysvinit-scripts/nftables /etc/init.d/nftables # dpkg --pending --configure Setting up orphan-sysvinit-scripts (0.10) ... /usr/bin/which: this version of `which' is deprecated; use `command -v' in scripts instead. /usr/bin/which: this version of `which' is deprecated; use `command -v' in scripts instead. cp: '/usr/share/orphan-sysvinit-scripts/nftables' and '/usr/share/orphan-sysvinit-scripts/nftables' are the same file dpkg: error processing package orphan-sysvinit-scripts (--configure): installed orphan-sysvinit-scripts package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: orphan-sysvinit-scripts Any adivce here?
