Ok, so, the most interesting question for me is... On line 50 in the init script: https://salsa.debian.org/xen-team/debian-xen/blob/master/debian/xen-utils-common.xen.init case $DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_PACKAGE in xen-utils-$VERSION) ;; # xen-utils-V maintscript, under Xen X=V xen-utils-*) exit 0;; # xen-utils-V maintscript, but under Xen X!=V *) ;; # maybe not under dpkg, etc. esac What is the value of this $DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_PACKAGE when it happens? Could it be something else than something beginning with xen-utils-? I have a suspicion that the systemd[1]: Reloading. has something to do with it. Or the triggers? Anyway, if DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_PACKAGE gets lost *anywhere* in whatever happens, it might end up as empty, and then matching just *. But, we really need find out how to reproduce it in a test environment. :| Hans
