Thus declare conflicts against systemd-shim/upstart packages in systemd package. [Test Case] * monitor drop-off of upgrades with below reported problem * Check that it is possible to upgrade to bionic's libpam-systemd from xenial with systemd-shim installed on xenial. [Regression Potential] * systemd-shim/upstart are both removed and not supported in bionic, thus forcing their removal via conflicts should bring the system into an expected state. [Other Info] * original bug report $ sudo apt upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade...
