Package: systemd-sysv Version: 241-5 Severity: grave I have somehow managed to install a buster system with systemd-sysv (so it boots under systemd) and without dbus (probably because I installed without recommends).
This has all sorts of ... er... interesting properties. The most noticeable (and disturbing) one is that `shutdown -r +DELAY` doesn't work anymore. root@archive-01:~# shutdown -r +1 "test" Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory root@archive-01:~# At this point, my SSH connexion froze and the machine stopped answering pings. I am not exactly sure what happens because I don't have a console on the server, but I suspect it just did a hard reboot, because normal shutdown procedures would have killed the sshd process and therefore closed the connexion (instead of just hanging). Therefore, not only the +1 minute delay is not respected, but the shutdown procedure is bypassed completely. The server eventually *did* reboot so it's not a full crash, but it's still pretty nasty. I would recommend a hard Depends on dbus for the systemd-sysv package (which provides the shutdown command) to resolve this problem. And I think this should be fixed in buster, sorry for the last minute bug report. :/ I really appreciate your work and systemd is generally working very well for me, so thank you for that! :) -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental'), (1, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=fr_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages systemd-sysv depends on: ii systemd 241-5 Versions of packages systemd-sysv recommends: ii libnss-systemd 241-5 systemd-sysv suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed PS: this bug report was filed on a different machine than the original one, but the environment should be similar (except the APT policy).
