FWIW, this is currently affecting customers who are running MAAS and require livepatch.
Comments #11 and #12 above confirm that the patch is enough for the MAAS needs. Whichever way MAAS decides to check for systemd is up to MAAS and that is not a reason to block an SRU provided that it does not impact any other piece of software. That said, this patch does not does not introduce a regression to MAAS nor any other software. Lastly, this patch is *only* for 1.9 as this code path is only available in Trusty, so upgrades to later Ubuntu releases will yield on using a newer version of MAAS that doesn't rely on this code path. That said, there's no supported way in Ubuntu that will symlink /sbin/init -> /lib/systemd/systemd , provided that systemd-sysv is *only* available in Xenial, and again, upgrades to Xenial will result in MAAS not using this codepath at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1732703 Title: MAAS does not detect properly if Ubuntu is using upstart/systemd To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1732703/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
