Fixed at https://salsa.debian.org/cryptsetup-team/cryptsetup/commit/b7abb5d06e46f3704c4edeb55d033b6283ae8777 . (Interesting, I seem to recall we threw piuparts at 2:2.0.3-1, but possibly didn't test that same upgrade path.) -- Guilhem. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Following the same upgrade path in a No, already asking the question about the conffile that was *not* modified by the user is a policy violation. That's the the piuparts bug template for this error in "normal" upgrade scenarios: Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed the piuparts upgrade test because dpkg detected a conffile as being modified and then prompted the user for an action. As there is no user input, this fails. But this is not the real problem, the real problem is that this prompt shows up in the first place, as there was nobody modifying this conffile at all, the package has just been installed and upgraded... This is a violation of policy 10.7.3, see https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/#behavior, which says "[These scripts handling conffiles] must not ask unnecessary questions (particularly during upgrades), and must otherwise be good citizens." https://wiki.debian.org/DpkgConffileHandling should help with figuring out how to do this properly. In https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2009/08/msg00675.html and followups it has been agreed that these bugs are to be filed with severity serious. Andreas

I wonder if it's a false positive? Following the same upgrade path in a stretch chroot: $ apt install cryptsetup $ apt remove cryptsetup $ sed -i s/stretch/buster/g /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.sources $ apt update $ apt dist-upgrade $ apt install cryptsetup The log differs as follows: Configuration file '/etc/cryptsetup-initramfs/conf-hook' ==> Deleted (by you or by a script) since installation. ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version. What would you like to do about it ? Your options are: Y or I : install the package maintainer's version N or O : keep your currently-installed version D : show the differences between the versions Z : start a shell to examine the situation The default action is to keep your current version. *** conf-hook (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog debconf: (No usable dialog-like program is installed, so the dialog based frontend cannot be used. at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/FrontEnd/Dialog.pm line 76.) debconf: falling back to frontend: Readline update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated) Setting up cryptsetup (2:2.0.3-6) ...

Bug#905188: cryptsetup-initramfs: fails to install, remove, distupgrade, and install again
Package: cryptsetup-initramfs Version: 2:2.0.3-6 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts Control: affects -1 + cryptsetup Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package cryptsetup failed to install (in 'stretch'), remove (but not purge), distupgrade to 'buster', and install again. Before the second installation the package is in config-files-remaining state. The configuration is remaining from the last version that was successfully configured - which is from the previous release. The problem shows up in cryptsetup-initramfs, which prompts about a deleted conffile, which was not deleted by the user, but probably by a buggy script in the old package. Like a plain failure on initial install this makes the package too buggy for a release, thus the severity. >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): Setting up initramfs-tools-core (0.131) ...

What would you like to do about it ?
