Public bug reported: Diogo had the following error on installing mysql-server-5.6 (5.6.23-1~exp1~ubuntu5):
/usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d: 1: /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d: /sbin/runlevel: not found Upon investigation, it seems that he didn't have systemd-sysv installed. He had started from a Vivid beta3 image and only upgraded (not dist- upgraded) since. A dist-upgrade brought in systemd-sysv and fixed the issue. However, I note that this shouldn't have happened anyway. sysv-rc (which provides invoke-rc.d) should depend on whatever provides /sbin/runlevel since it's provided here by systemd-sysv which is not marked essential. If it did so, then Diogo's system would have held back packages appropriately to not cause this breakage until he dist-upgraded. We think Diogo was running version 2.88dsf-53.2ubuntu12 before the upgrade. He's definitely running 2.88dsf-53.2ubuntu12 now. ** Affects: sysvinit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: systemd-boot -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to sysvinit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1444502 Title: sysv-rc uses /sbin/runlevel without depending on a package that provides it Status in sysvinit package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Diogo had the following error on installing mysql-server-5.6 (5.6.23-1~exp1~ubuntu5): /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d: 1: /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d: /sbin/runlevel: not found Upon investigation, it seems that he didn't have systemd-sysv installed.
