Package: sysv-rc Version: 2.87dsf-6 Severity: normal I get errors while migrating to dependency based boot system:
|# dpkg-reconfigure sysv-rc |debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog |debconf: (Dialog frontend will not work on a dumb terminal, an emacs shell buffer, or without a controlling terminal.) |debconf: falling back to frontend: Readline |info: Checking if it is safe to convert to dependency based boot. |Configuring sysv-rc |------------------- | |Unable to migrate to dependency based boot system | |Tests have determined that problems in the boot system exist which prevent migration to dependency based boot |sequencing. It is recommended to migrate for the following reasons: | | * the order of boot and shutdown is calculated dynamically, using | dependency information declared within each init.d script, which | ensures optimum and correct boot sequence for the set of installed | packages | * protection against problems introduced by new or upgraded packages | by preserving the boot sequence when problems are detected; the boot | sequence is only modified if it is safe to do so | | |If the reported problem is a local modification it needs to be fixed manually. If it's a bug in the package |it should be reported to the BTS and fixed in the package. See |http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts/DependencyBasedBoot for more information about how to fix the problems |preventing migration. To reattempt the migration process after the problems have been fixed, run |'dpkg-reconfigure sysv-rc'. | |The following problems were detected: package bittorrent left obsolete init.d script behind, package timidity |left obsolete init.d script behind | |error: Unable to migrate to dependency based boot sequencing. |error: Problems detected: package bittorrent left obsolete init.d script behind, package timidity left obsolete init.d script behind However, it appears that neither bittorrent nor timidity have in fact problems: |# dpkg -S /etc/init.d/timidity |timidity: /etc/init.d/timidity |# dpkg -S /etc/init.d/bittorrent |bittorrent: /etc/init.d/bittorrent -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'testing-proposed-updates') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=it_IT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages sysv-rc depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.27 Debian configuration management sy ii insserv 1.12.0-13 Tool to organize boot sequence usi ii sysvinit-utils 2.87dsf-6 System-V-like utilities Versions of packages sysv-rc recommends: ii lsb-base 3.2-23 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip Versions of packages sysv-rc suggests: pn bum <none> (no description available) pn sysv-rc-conf <none> (no description available) -- debconf information: * sysv-rc/unable-to-convert: sysv-rc/convert-legacy: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
