Please see #941867 - in Precise the postinst script that attempts to change the order to the correct one fails, leaving the system unable to boot the default kernel (because initrd isn't generated during dist- upgrade) with no networking (update of network-manager depends on initscripts) or working X.
The fix is simple enough, in the fix up block "# Cleanup the broken shutdown sequence created by 3rd-party packages" run the mv commands in a way so their failure (for instance, because the order is OK already so mv complains the source and destination are the same) doesn't kill the package install. Fixed script attached. ** Attachment added: "postinst" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sysvinit/+bug/858122/+attachment/2973471/+files/postinst -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/858122 Title: incomplete migration to /run (shutdown script order has been demolished) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/858122/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
