Package: systemd-sysv Version: 204-14 Severity: serious
systemd-sysv conflicts with sysvinit-core, which is required. This is particularly problematic since libpam-systemd alternatively depends on systemd-sysv. On my testing install, APT's solution when asked to upgrade systemd is to remove sysvinit-core:
# LANG=C apt-get dist-upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libcolamd2.8.0 lp-solve xulrunner-29 Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. Done The following packages will be REMOVED: sysvinit-core The following NEW packages will be installed: systemd-sysv The following packages will be upgraded: libpam-systemd libsystemd-daemon0 libsystemd-id128-0 libsystemd-journal0 libsystemd-login0 systemd 6 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Removing libpam-systemd isn't too tempting neither:
# LANG=C apt-get remove libpam-systemd Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libcolamd2.8.0 libmodemmanagerqt1 libnetworkmanagerqt1 lp-solve xulrunner-29 Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. The following packages will be REMOVED: colord hplip kde-plasma-desktop libpam-systemd network-manager plasma-nm plasma-widget-networkmanagement policykit-1 policykit-1-gnome printer-driver-postscript-hp udisks2 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 11 to remove and 5 not upgraded.
I managed to solve this safely by installing systemd-shim. I was surprised to see APT propose the removal of a required package. I didn't test how that would go, but if that's not a problem, something must be wrong with its priority field. I'll save my system from such an experimentation and let others decide if this needs to be reassigned. -- Filipus Klutiero http://www.philippecloutier.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
