I found the trigger: root@mybox:~# strace -o /tmp/foo insserv root@mybox:~# grep systemd /tmp/foo access("/bin/systemd", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) root@mybox:~# touch /bin/systemd root@mybox:~# insserv insserv: can not connect systemd: Failed to connect to socket /run/systemd/private: No such file or directory process 5436: arguments to dbus_connection_close() were incorrect, assertion "connection != NULL" failed in file ../../dbus/dbus-connection.c line 2907. This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library. process 5436: arguments to dbus_connection_unref() were incorrect, assertion "connection != NULL" failed in file ../../dbus/dbus-connection.c line 2794. This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library. root@mybox:~# So if /bin/systemd exist, insserv change behaviour and fail if it can't talk to systemd. Will have to come up with a different detection mechanism. Anyone got any ideas? This is the current code: /* * Systemd support */ if (access(SYSTEMD_BINARY_PATH, F_OK) == 0 && (sbus = systemd_open_conn())) { for (c = 0; c < argc; c++) forward_to_systemd (argv[c], del ? "disable": "enable", path != ipath); (void)systemd_get_tree(sbus); systemd_close_conn(sbus); systemd = true; } Heh, a nasty way to work around this problem would be to conflict with systemd. :) Not a sustainable option, thought. :/ -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
