** Description changed:

  Hi,
- 
- Debian 11, switched to sysvinit according to Debian documentation.
  
  Sysvinit (2.96-7) includes a shutdown version (/sbin/shutdown) that
  contains a bug not present in previous versions of shutdown
  
  It affects to QEMU VMs, like Proxmox, for example, that cannot be
  shutdown from console.
  
  Basically, to shutdown QEMU-Guest-Agent issues the command
  
  /sbin/shutdown -h -P +0
  
  but /sbin/shutdown refuses to work when -h and -P are present at the
  same time, although its help says explicitly that "-P can only be used
  with -h flag".
  
  Older versions of shutdown work correctly!! and  /sbin/shutdown -h -P +0
  shutdown the machine as expected.
  
  Regards,
  
  Pedreter.
