Title:
procps upgrades fail in a LXD container
Status in procps package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in procps source package in Xenial:
In Progress
Status in procps package in Debian:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
procps cannot be upgraded - or even reinstalled - in an LXD container. This
means we cannot deliver updates (like the pending fix for LP: #1637026 in
xenial-proposed) w/o putting container users in a bad state that requires a
container restart to resolve.
[Test Case]
$ lxc launch ubuntu:xenial procpstest
Creating procpstest
Starting procpstest
$ lxc exec procpstest -- /bin/bash
root@procpstest:~# apt --reinstall install procps

[Regression Risk]
The proposed fix is to disable invoking the procps initscript on
install/upgrade. This fix is already in yakkety, and I didn't find any bugs
related to it in LP.
