After a fresh installation of my virtual server, I wanted to switch sysv as I
always do however, I couldn't do so:
root@vmi3092844:~# apt install sysvinit-core orphan-sysvinit-scripts
Solving dependencies... Error!
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
Unsatisfied dependencies:
initscripts : Depends: sysv-rc but it is not going to be installed or
file-rc but it is not installable or
openrc but it is not going to be installed
systemd-sysv : Conflicts: initscripts but 3.14-4 is to be installed
Conflicts: orphan-sysvinit-scripts but 0.21+deb13u2 is to be
installed
Conflicts: sysvinit-core but 3.14-4 is to be installed
Recommends: libnss-systemd but it is not going to be installed
sysvinit-core : Depends: sysv-rc but it is not going to be installed or
file-rc but it is not installable or
openrc but it is not going to be installed
Conflicts: systemd-sysv but 257.9-1~deb13u1 is to be installed
Error: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused
by held packages.
Error: The following information from --solver 3.0 may provide additional
context:
Unable to satisfy dependencies. Reached two conflicting decisions:
1. systemd-sysv:amd64 is selected for install
2. systemd-sysv:amd64 is selected for removal because:
1. sysvinit-core:amd64=3.14-4 is selected for install
2. systemd-sysv:amd64 Conflicts sysvinit-core
I tried to force remove systemd-sysv and eventually libpam-systemd but nothing
resolved it. I don't this was an issue in 13.0. I'm not 100% sure but
definitely managed to switch in 12.x
