Subject: libnss-nis: dist-upgrade buster to sid error Package: libnss-nis Version: 3.1-4 Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer, When I try to upgrade from buster to sid, errors show that libc6 could not be configured : /usr/bin/apt-get dist-upgrade -y ... ... (no errors above) ... Running hooks in /etc/ca-certificates/update.d... done. Processing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.139) ... update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.9.0-1-amd64 E: Could not configure 'libc6:amd64'. E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'libnss-nis:amd64'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2) When I add option -o APT::Immediate-Configure=0 : /usr/bin/apt-get dist-upgrade -y -o APT::Immediate-Configure=0 ... ... (no errors above) ... E: Could not configure 'libc6:amd64'. E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'libtirpc3:amd64'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2) E: Could not configure 'libc6:amd64'. E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'libnsl2:amd64'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2) E: Could not configure 'libc6:amd64'. E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'libnss-nis:amd64'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2) The issue can be bypassed by installing libc6 with Immediate-Configure=0 option BEFORE upgrading : /usr/bin/apt-get install -y libc6 -f -o APT::Immediate-Configure=0 && /usr/bin/apt-get dist-upgrade -y All this was performed from a fresh debian buster 10.6 install (classical, all default options), update sources.list to unstable, and then run dist-upgrade. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-12-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages libnss-nis depends on: ii libc6 2.31-4 ii libnsl2 1.3.0-2 libnss-nis recommends no packages. libnss-nis suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
