This is the related bug : https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=788313 1:1.5.8-2 is now in Wily so the upstart job needs to be SRUed to Trusty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to makedumpfile in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1466013 Title: kdump-tools does not have an upstart job Status in makedumpfile package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in makedumpfile source package in Trusty: Confirmed Bug description: kdump-tools relies on a sysVinit script to capture the kernel dump. It sometimes gets interference from other jobs starting at runlevels 2 to 5. An upstart job starting before RUNLEVEL is emitted would alleviate that.
