I think the key point is: 18:50:04 <dondelelcaro> so for this bug, I'm happier that we actually have concrete proposals, though I don't think any of them have had enough testing 18:50:29 <ansgar> I think two had issues with installing sysvinit in some cases. 18:50:39 <ansgar> And the last one just arrived ~2 hours ago. 18:51:57 <ansgar> First proposal in 762194#124, I tested it in #142 which shows confusion as to whether the proposal works. The idea is to move the piece responsible for defaulting to systemd from pkg:init to pkg:debootstrap -- and a move consists of two changes: removing in place A then adding in place B. What ansgar tested in #142 is removing only, with obvious results. I did try to dispel this confusion but this apparently hasn't been noticed. > More details: (if using apt, see also #757298 about the grub2 entry) > > - upgrading from Wheezy/with sysvinit to Jessie can boot with > init=/lib/sysvinit/init unless/until the sysvinit package is removed by > e.g. autoclean.
