this workaround allowed installation to proceed for me: touch /etc/init.d/nis apt-get install nis rm /etc/init.d/nis.dpkg-bak Apparently it is assuming that the nis startup file exists, but it doesn't actually matter what's in it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nis in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979758 Title: package fails to configure on failing to find /etc/init.d/nis To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/979758/+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 979758] Re: package fails to configure on failing to find /etc/init.d/nis
Very painful issue - system NIS server non functional and whole network is on a go slow (with timeouts), I do not know of a workaround. I tried force etc. but it all still fails. Interestingly nis installed on the clients - just seems to be this server upgrade so it may be a dependency (?) type thing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nis in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979758 Title: package fails to configure on failing to find /etc/init.d/nis To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/979758/+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 979758] Re: package fails to configure on failing to find /etc/init.d/nis
I suspect the invoke-rc.d line needs to be wrapped in the -e part of the
of the check?
The current preinst code looks like:
# Manually remove the nis init script, which has to be split into per-daemon
# upstart jobs
if dpkg --compare-versions $2 lt-nl 3.17-32ubuntu1.1
then
# since this isn't stopped on upgrade, we have to stop it now
# so we don't leave orphaned processes running
invoke-rc.d nis stop
if [ -e /etc/init.d/nis ] [ ! -L /etc/init.d/nis ]; then
if [ `md5sum \/etc/init.d/nis\ | sed -e \s/ .*//\` != \
`dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}' nis | sed -n -e \'
/etc/init.d/nis '{s/ obsolete$//;s/.* //p}\` ]
then
echo Obsolete conffile /etc/init.d/nis has been
modified by you, renaming to .dpkg-bak
mv -f /etc/init.d/nis /etc/init.d/nis.dpkg-bak
else
rm -f /etc/init.d/nis
fi
fi
update-rc.d nis remove
fi
