This is a major issue during a dist-upgrade from Precise to Trusty as upstart is severely affected by this and looses track of service PIDs which prevents service reloads. Can someone add a Breaks for Precise's upstart version to Trusty's libselinux1 debian/control file? Reproduction instructions: Install Ubuntu 12.04.4. $ sudo apt-get update -qq && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -qqy <no output; no updates> $ initctl list avahi-daemon start/running, process 765 ... $ sudo sed -i 's/precise/trusty/g' /etc/apt/sources.list $ sudo apt-get update -qq <no ouput; no errors> $ sudo apt-get install libselinux1 -y ... New dmesg lines: [ 256.032898] init: Re-executing /sbin/init New syslog lines: Apr 23 14:51:40 test upstart-socket-bridge[1090]: Disconnected from Upstart Apr 23 14:51:40 test upstart-udev-bridge[595]: Disconnected from Upstart $ initctl list avahi-daemon stop/waiting ... Upstart lost track of service PIDs. Commands like 'initctl reload dbus' will fail.
