When upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04.1, it started telling me that something wrong happened with sysv-rc, then that there were some "initscripts dependency problems" making it "leaving unconfigured". Then many packages were reported as incorrectly setup : procps, udev, initramfs, keyboard-configuration, console-setup, plymouth, cups, upower, gnome-session, gnome-shell, udisk, gvfs, software-center, mountall, upstart, etc. After reading the log files, I found out that this was caused by insserv, reporting "insserv rejected the script header", coming from package virtuoso-nepomuk having an incorrect header in /etc/init.d : "missing end of LSB comment", "missing LSB tags and overrides". This package http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/database/virtuoso-nepomuk was existing on 12.04, but was removed afterwards. The latest version 6.1.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1 indeed contains an incorrect header in /etc/init.d/virtuoso-nepomuk. I managed to solve the issue by adding the "END INIT INFO" in this file, like below : #! /bin/sh # # virtuoso OpenLink Virtuoso Open-Source Edition # # Written by OpenLink Virtuoso Maintainer # <vos.ad...@openlinksw.com> # # Version: @(#)virtuoso 6.1.4 25-Mar-2011 vos.ad...@openlinksw.com # ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: virtuoso # Required-Start: $syslog # Required-Stop: $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Start Virtuoso database server on startup # Description: Start and stop the primary instance of Virtuoso running # in /var/lib/virtuoso/db/.
