Public bug reported: Running 'sudo debootstrap xenial /tmp/test http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu' fails for me, with this warning:
W: Failure while configuring required packages. W: See /tmp/test/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details (possibly the package ifupdown is at fault) and later looking at debootstrap.log reveals the problem: ifupdown is configured before initscripts, thus mountkernfs & urandom are not available yet: Setting up ifupdown (0.8.10ubuntu1) ... Creating /etc/network/interfaces. insserv: Service mountkernfs has to be enabled to start service networking insserv: Service urandom has to be enabled to start service networking insserv: exiting now! update-rc.d: error: insserv rejected the script header dpkg: error processing package ifupdown (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 ** Affects: debootstrap (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1651711 Title: unable to debootstrap xenial (possibly the package ifupdown is at fault) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debootstrap/+bug/1651711/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
