Package: systemd Version: 215-17+deb8u2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
At the moment in Debian Jessie (stable) it is not possible to use systemctl is-enabled command with SysV-style init scripts. A large portion of Debian Jessie packages unfortunately still provide only the SysV-style init scripts. When using certain automation tools, such as Ansible, the systemctl is-enabled command is used for validating whether the service has been started already or not. Unfortunately, since this does not work, automation tools always report the service status as changed. This can be an issue when checking for idempotency of implemented automation tool. This bug has already been reported and resolved (see #760616), but only in Debian unstable. It would be highly appreciated if this bug were backported to Debian Jessie as well, especially given the relatively long release cycles. -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages systemd depends on: ii acl 2.2.52-2 ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii initscripts 2.88dsf-59 ii libacl1 2.2.52-2 ii libaudit1 1:2.4-1+b1 ii libblkid1 2.25.2-6 ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u1 ii libcap2 1:2.24-8 ii libcap2-bin 1:2.24-8 ii libcryptsetup4 2:1.6.6-5 ii libgcrypt20 1.6.3-2 ii libkmod2 18-3 ii liblzma5 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2+b3 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.1 ii libselinux1 2.3-2 ii libsystemd0 215-17+deb8u2 ii mount 2.25.2-6 ii sysv-rc 2.88dsf-59 ii udev 215-17+deb8u2 ii util-linux 2.25.2-6 Versions of packages systemd recommends: ii dbus 1.8.20-0+deb8u1 pn libpam-systemd <none> Versions of packages systemd suggests: pn systemd-ui <none> -- no debconf information
