[Bug 1436691] Re: Essential files are missing
Please can you explain why you think this is a bug? As far as I understand, you now need to install upstart-sysv if you want to keep your system running upstart on Vivid. But ordinarily users should not be affected because they should all have been migrated to systemd, unless there is a bug that prevents that happening? If this is the case, please can you explain what installer you used to install your system? Can you reproduce steps in a virtual machine that lead to the system becoming broken on a dist-upgrade? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to init-system-helpers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1436691 Title: Essential files are missing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/init-system-helpers/+bug/1436691/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1436691] Re: Essential files are missing
I have found some additional information on how this bug would be reproduced, let me explain: If you visit this URL: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu- gnome/releases/15.04/ , there are four alpha/beta releases of 15.04 in that directory: alpha-1, alpha-2, beta-1 and beta-2. Now check the manifest file for alpha-1, alpha-2 and/or beta-1 (but not beta-2), for example: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-gnome/releases/15.04/beta-1/ubuntu-gnome-15.04-beta1-desktop-amd64.manifest You will see that these packages related to systemd and upstart were installed by default: systemd 219-3ubuntu1 systemd-shim9-1 upstart 1.13.2-0ubuntu7 upstart-bin 1.13.2-0ubuntu7 Notice that the systemd-sysv package is NOT installed by default in the manifest file? This means the binaries such as /sbin/init and /sbin/shutdown are only provided by the upstart package. Now, in the latest version of upstart package, these binaries were moved to upstart-sysv and are no longer contained in the upstart package itself. To sum it up, if you start with an alpha-1, alpha-2 and/or beta-1 build of Ubuntu 15.04, and from there, attempt to do a apt-get update; apt- get dist-upgrade (or aptitude update; aptitude upgrade), it will cause the system to lose those essential binaries and can no longer shutdown/reboot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to init-system-helpers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1436691 Title: Essential files are missing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/init-system-helpers/+bug/1436691/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

This seems not to be a bug in the upstart package - see comment #10 for the details.

[Bug 1436691] Re: Essential files are missing
I'm noticing that these essential files have been moved from the package upstart to the new package upstart-sysv. This package has just to be missed being installed on upgrading because the package init is not essential (while its description says it is (also it says that it allows to select between 3 init systems while it actually lists only 2)). ** Package changed: upstart (Ubuntu) = init-system-helpers (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to init-system-helpers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1436691 Title: Essential files are missing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/init-system-helpers/+bug/1436691/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
