Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal User: release.debian....@packages.debian.org Usertags: unblock
Hi, I know this is unblock request is rather late, apologies for that. The current version of init-system-helpers in buster has a change which was not acked by its maintainers. The bug submitter ignored that feedback and NMUed the package anyway. Not adding runit-init as alternative means, that when installing runit-init, dpkg/apt will prompt you, if you really want to do that change. Given the experience I and Martin Pitt had, when evaluating runit, this is probably not a bad thing. After all, the init meta package is merely a safety net to prevent users from shooting themselves in the foot. The init meta-package doesn't provide any functionality and serves no other purpose otherwise. I've seen that [1] was just filed, I hope this doesn't block testing migration Regards, Michael [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=931181 unblock init-system-helpers/1.57 -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled
