Package: systemd Someone I know has just installed sysvinit-core on their system, to switch there from systemd. This is currently the recommended way of switching to sysvinit after installing a wheezy/sid system. The installation was not done with --purge and did pull sysvinit-shim.
However, the system failed to come down / reboot properly after this. If installing Debian with systemd then installing sysvinit-core and rebooting is the recommended way to switch, it should work. I can imagine something like this: • in prerm, copy the systemd shutdown/reboot utility to /run • in postrm, reboot the system using these utilities, with a debconf priority=high question, and tell the user how they can do that manually if they deny the auto-reboot in debconf Does this sound reasonable? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
