Nope. If it were that easy to reproduce and the package were that buggy, it would never have been uploaded. (Please offer a tiny bit of respect to your fellow developers!) You might be unaware that stable→sid upgrades are tested automatically, and that the problem can't be reproduced there either. https://piuparts.debian.org/stable2sid/source/i/init-system-helpers.html https://piuparts.debian.org/stable2sid/pass/init-system-helpers_1.65.2.log Understanding what provoked apt to pick the wrong package on your particular system is needed here. Quite obviously no-one else can reproduce it (or, once again, it wouldn't have been uploaded). Also obviously, if there are no details, it won't be fixed except perhaps by accident. The output of « apt list '~o' » and « apt-cache policy » might have useful clues still. > But it's too late, I've lost interest and I have no more energy to deal with > the hostility and dog-piling. Please re-read your initial bug report and then please don't try taking the high moral ground about the tone of the discussion. -- Stuart Prescott http://www.nanonanonano.net/ stu...@nanonanonano.net Debian Developer http://www.debian.org/ stu...@debian.org GPG fingerprint 90E2 D2C1 AD14 6A1B 7EBB 891D BBC1 7EBB 1396 F2F7
