I've always done it that way. Just s/wheezy/jessie/ instead of both gives sysvinit-core. > apt should properly install systemd-sysv on upgrades and afaik is the > recommended method.

I wasn't sure which package was the cause of it and where the fix should be. I probably should have filed it against the whole set of packages involved until the location for the fix is found.

The issue doesn't happen with aptitude dist-upgrade, it only happens with aptitude upgrade. > Is "aptitude upgrade" actually supposed to be used on dist-upgrades? Whether or not one should use aptitude flips around between releases so I believe people will be using it whether or not we recommend it for a particular release. > Again, from my POV the best we can do is to document in the release > notes how to do a proper dist upgrade (and how not to). Incidentally, > the release notes already recommend *not* to use aptitude [1]. I expect people will just use the tool they prefer and won't read the release notes. I note that one problematic command is 'aptitude upgrade' and the "Minimal system upgrade" section doesn't mention not using aptitude. I've filed #780076 about that. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
