[Bernhard Kleine] > Hallo, I am still left with an update failure: Hm, strange. Must be some new issue. Can you rerun the reconfigure like this to get some idea why this fail?
DEBCONF_DEBUG=developer dpkg-reconfigure sysv-rc I suspect the problem is debconf related. It would also be nice to see the output from reconfiguring after adding 'set -x' to the top of /var/lib/dpkg/info/sysv-rc.postinst. I will also try to reproduce this here. > The same is true with 2.87dsf-4. Very strange. The error I was aware of was fixed in version 2.87dsf-4.

Is this intential? Nope, it is not intentional.
