The notification socket changed from being in the abstract namespace to /run/systemd/notify in v209 IIRC. I made an interesting observation: I've added an ls -la /run/systemd/notify and lsof /run/systemd/notify in systemd.postinst right before systemd is re-execd. I would have expected, that the socket does *not* exist before systemd is re-execd, but apparently I had a file there: srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Oct 10 10:41 /run/systemd/notify and no process listening on it. (don't worry about the date, it was run in a VM with a busted clock). *Some* process is triggering the creation of the notification socket and it also seems to have the wrong permissions (should be srwxrwxrwx). So I've tried and added a brute-force "rm -f /run/systemd/notify" right before the "systemctl daemon-reexec" and the upgrade of the systemd and udev package completed successfully. Does anyone have an idea what's going on here and how to fix it properly? -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
