Package: ifupdown Version: 0.8.5 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system User: de...@kali.org
debootstrap of stretch currently fails due to ifupdown: $ sudo debootstrap --components=main,contrib,non-free stretch stretch http://ftp.debian.org/debian [...] I: Unpacking libxapian22v5... W: Failure while installing base packages. This will be re-attempted up to five times. W: See /home/rhertzog/tmp/stretch/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details (possibly the package /var/cache/apt/archives/ifupdown_0.8.6_amd64.deb is at fault) debootstrap.log contains this: dpkg: regarding .../ifupdown_0.8.6_amd64.deb containing ifupdown: ifupdown breaks systemd (<< 228-3~) systemd (version 228-2+b1) is present and triggered. dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/ifupdown_0.8.6_amd64.deb (--unpack): installing ifupdown would break systemd, and deconfiguration is not permitted (--auto-deconfigure might help) The problem is that stretch still has systemd 228-2 and 228-4 is unlikely to migrate quickly since it just got updated and seems to have a new RC bug. I'm not sure what's the best way forward... possibly upload something to testing-proposed-updates to drop that breaks temporarily until the package migrates (and ensure 0.8.7 does not migrate before systemd). Or force migrate the new systemd despite the age and the bug... Ccing release team and systemd maintainers to have their opinion. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers squeeze-lts APT policy: (500, 'squeeze-lts'), (500, 'oldoldstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages ifupdown depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii init-system-helpers 1.24 ii iproute2 4.3.0-1 ii libc6 2.21-6 ii lsb-base 9.20150917 Versions of packages ifupdown recommends: ii isc-dhcp-client [dhcp-client] 4.3.3-5 Versions of packages ifupdown suggests: ii ppp 2.4.7-1+1 pn rdnssd <none> -- no debconf information
