Package: sysvinit Version: 2.88dsf-14 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
Dear Maintainer, The new sysv packages in experimental look like they are breaking my system. reboot via # shutdown -r now, or # shutdown -h now, do not work, and the only way to reboot my machine is with magic-sysrq-b or hard reset. When the machine comes up again, login is displayed way too early (~3 seconds after grub), and once I login, the system seems to be severly broken... nothing besides root is mounted, hostname is not displayed, network has not been brought up, etc... If anyone else is hit with this, and you don't have sysv packages from unstable already in your cache for downgrading, the only way I've found is to chroot into your system via a livecd and downgrade that way to get your machine fully functional again. *note: System information was obtained with sysv packages at version 2.88dsf-13.13 -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages sysvinit depends on: ii initscripts 2.88dsf-13.13 ii libc6 2.13-22 ii libselinux1 2.1.0-4 ii libsepol1 2.1.0-1.1 ii sysv-rc 2.88dsf-13.13 ii sysvinit-utils 2.88dsf-13.13 sysvinit recommends no packages. sysvinit suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
