Package: openrc Severity: important Version: 0.12.4+20131230-3 Hi,
[Writing this report from another machine, hence no meta data at the end] I've installed a Xen DomU with xen-tools 4.4 and "xen-create-image --dist sid --dhcp --pygrub --noaccounts --role minimal [some host-specific parameters like disk size, memory size, hostname and mirror settings]". "--role minimal" causes (beyond other things I wanted) busybox-syslogd instead of rsyslog to be installed. On the machine I then installed openrc, called the command being told while openrc was set up (c.f. http://thomas.goirand.fr/blog/?p=153). It only seemed to shutdown busybox-syslogd and then rebooted the box. ssh didn't come up on boot, so I started it manually. Then I replaced busybox-syslogd with rsyslog to get persistent syslogs. apt-get suggested to remove insserv, as it was installed automatically, so I purged it. Then I tried to reboot the virtual machine with "reboot". While the ssh session where I typed "reboot" is still there, hence, the system hasn't rebooted yet, I endlessly get the following messages on the console, despite they rather look like bootup sequence than a shutdown sequence (don't know where the start of the loop is, so I took a random line as start): […] [ ok ] Cleaning up temporary files.... error: unable to read /etc/insserv.conf at /lib/rc/bin/lsb.pl line 19.

I logged in via SSH, typed "reboot" again and the machine rebooted fine again, except that my SSH session was not killed (at least not before the network of the virtual machine was down). Then I removed insserv again and typed "reboot". This time everything looked different and there were quite some error messages on the console, but no more loops: INIT: Switching to runlevel: 6 INIT: Sending processes the TERM signal error: unable to read /etc/insserv.conf at /lib/rc/bin/lsb.pl line 19.
