Package: systemd Version: 247.9-1 Severity: important Hi,
this seems to be related to the "dh_installsystemd: Prefer /usr/lib/systemd/ to /lib/systemd" change from debhelper v13.4. Our daily Grml ISO builds started to fail a few days ago, because in our chroots we have a symlink for /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service, which points to /lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service (as it used to be in the rsyslog packaging in the past): | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35 Aug 24 07:54 /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service -> /lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service Now, when invoking `systemctl preset-all` this fails as follows: | # systemctl preset-all | Unit /lib/systemd/system/cryptdisks.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/mdadm-waitidle.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/rcS.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/sudo.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/cryptdisks-early.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/x11-common.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/screen-cleanup.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/rc.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/mdadm.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/nfs-common.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/lvm2.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/hwclock.service is masked, ignoring. | Failed to preset unit, file /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service already exists and is a symlink to /lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service. When manually removing the /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service symlink, then it works as expected: | # rm /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service | # systemctl preset-all | Unit /lib/systemd/system/cryptdisks.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/mdadm-waitidle.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/rcS.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/sudo.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/cryptdisks-early.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/x11-common.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/screen-cleanup.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/rc.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/mdadm.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/nfs-common.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/lvm2.service is masked, ignoring. | Unit /lib/systemd/system/hwclock.service is masked, ignoring. | Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service. The issue might have to be fixed from within the rsyslog package itself, but given that this issue might affect further packages and whoever relies on `systemctl preset-all`, I decided to report it against systemd. Feel free to reassign as needed. Maybe also to be considered RC severity? regards -mika-
