Package: mdadm
Version: 3.2.5-5
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
apt-get used to install mdadm on raspbian/wheezy
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mdadm
and answered 2 questions:
MD arrays needed for root file system: none
Do you want to start MD arrays automatically: Yes
* What was the outcome of this action?
After installing several dependencies succesfully
apt-get started to set up mdadm. This generated
several insserv errors/messages and
update-rc.d said "insserv rejected the script header"
dpkg returned error code (1)
* What outcome did you expect instead?
mdadm to be installed and startup scripts updated
*HERE IS A COMPLETE LISTING OF THE INSTALL TTY OUTPUT
