Thanks: I made the logs available at https://www.icce.rug.nl/systemd > ... > Btw, you mentioned that this happened after an upgrade. Which previous > version did you run which worked fine?

Tue, Dec 1 2015 14:07:23 +0100: the aptitude log shows an upgrade from systemd 227-2 to 228-2 dpkg log: 2015-12-01 14:08:42 upgrade systemd:i386 227-2 228-2 dpkg log: 2015-12-03 08:30:01 upgrade systemd:i386 228-2 215-17+deb8u2 Thu, Dec 3 2015 08:31:37 +0100 the aptitude log shows an upgrade from systemd 215-17+deb8u2 -> 228-2 dpkg log: 2015-12-03 08:31:40 upgrade systemd:i386 215-17+deb8u2 228-2 and then, recently, by me trying to downgrade: dpkg log: 2015-12-17 12:59:12 upgrade systemd:i386 228-2 228-2 dpkg log: 2015-12-18 16:15:37 upgrade systemd:i386 228-2 215-17+deb8u2 dpkg log: 2015-12-18 16:17:11 upgrade systemd:i386 215-17+deb8u2 228-2 Before Dec 1 no updates were recorded for systemd or udev, and until the upgrades early December everything ran fine. > If you downgrade systemd/udev, does the problem go away? As I feared, downgrading is difficult because of the many reverse dependencies. I looked at ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/s/systemd/ which is the mirror I usually use for earlier .deb files, but the one before 228-2 is 215-17, and 227-2 is only available as source archives and not AFAICS as .deb packages. I'll add the debug entry next (cf. your mail from Date: Fri, 18 Dec 2015 03:15:15 +0100) and let you know the results. -- Frank B.
