I have tried to reproduce this on a clean installation of jessie inside of an LXC container but that went fine. So it seems to be something specific to my system.
# on a debian system as root: # on stretch apt-get install lxc # or if you are on jessie you need lxc from the backports to have proper network config out of the box #apt-get install -t jessie-backports lxc # set up lxc networking as described in # https://wiki.debian.org/LXC#Minimal_changes_to_set_up_networking_for_LXC_for_Debian_.2BIBw-stretch.2BIB0_.28testing.29 lxc-create -n test-upgrade -t debian -- -r jessie lxc-start -n test-upgrade -d lxc-attach -n test-upgrade # in the container run the following: sed -i s/jessie/stretch/ /etc/apt/sources.list apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade _______________________________________________ Pkg-systemd-maintainers mailing list Pkg-systemd-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-systemd-maintainers
