Package: base-files
Version: 6.4
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
Hi Santiago,
This is not a bug in base-files!; it's due to #628039 in initscripts:
"Don't allow migration to testing because until SELinux refpolicy
is updated to support /run, the system is rendered unusable for
SELinux users."
Because testing migration doesn't currently consider Breaks, base-files
would migrate prior to sysvinit/initscripts, which would result in
breakage (or at least uninstallability, which testing tries to avoid).
As soon as SELinux refpolicy is updated, we can let sysvinit into
testing and base-files can migrate at the same time. So this bug is
just to block testing migration temporarily.
Regards,
Rogger

The existing base-files Breaks on initscripts (<< 2.88dsf-13.3)
and the initscripts Breaks on selinux-policy-default (<= 2:0.2.20100524-9)
will prevent base-files from breaking selinux, so it's
actually safe to allow migration right now. Consequently, closing
this bug to allow migration to proceed.
Regards,
Roger
