Package: emdebian-rootfs Version: 1.4.1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 7.4
emdebian-rootfs includes multiple suite scripts for root filesystem generation using debootstrap --foreign and two of these suite scripts (the two related to the smallest installations) have not been updated to reflect changes in the dependencies in the Emdebian packages. Specifically, the suite scripts force the installation of two packages that Conflict, leaving an installed system that cannot be easily upgraded or fixed. The conflict relates specifically to update-rc.d which is a perl script in sysv-rc (and therefore cannot run in Emdebian). To prevent the perl version overwriting the existing emdebian-rootfs support, busybox conflicts with sysv-rc in Emdebian. Building dependency tree... Done You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these: The following packages have unmet dependencies: busybox: Conflicts: sysv-rc but 2.86.ds1-60em1.1 is to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). Removing sysv-rc removes the update-rc.d workaround (the reason for the conflict in the first place), leaving a system that cannot be upgraded: dpkg: `update-rc.d' not found on PATH. dpkg: 1 expected program(s) not found on PATH. NB: root's PATH should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin and /sbin. E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) A shell replacement for update-rc.d has been designed during DebConf (with assistance from Phil Hands) and is currently being tested. However, the problem of forcing the installation of packages that were subsequently uploaded with a Conflicts: field in debian/control needs to be fixed for Lenny. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_GB.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages emdebian-rootfs depends on: ii apt 0.7.14+b1 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii apt-cross 0.12.0 retrieve, build and install librar ii binutils-multiarch 2.18.1~cvs20080103-7 Binary utilities that support mult ii debconf [debconf-2. 1.5.23 Debian configuration management sy ii debootstrap 1.0.10 Bootstrap a basic Debian system ii devscripts 2.10.35 scripts to make the life of a Debi ii dpkg-cross 2.3.0 tools for cross compiling Debian p ii edos-debcheck 1.0-6+b2 Checks whether dependencies of deb ii emdebian-archive-ke 1.4.3 GnuPG archive keys for the emdebia ii libemdebian-tools-p 1.4.3 emdebian support library ii pbuilder 0.181 personal package builder for Debia ii perl 5.10.0-13 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii sudo 1.6.9p17-1 Provide limited super user privile ii ucf 3.007 Update Configuration File: preserv emdebian-rootfs recommends no packages.
