Hi Guillem,

with the latest dpkg I still get a trigger cycle error on a wheezy->sid
piuparts upgrade test:

  Setting up libdevmapper1.02.1:amd64 (2:1.02.90-2) ...
  Setting up dmsetup (2:1.02.90-2) ...
  update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)
  dpkg: cycle found while processing triggers:
   chain of packages whose triggers are or may be responsible:
    initramfs-tools -> libc-bin
   packages' pending triggers which are or may be unresolvable:
    libc-bin: ldconfig
    initramfs-tools: update-initramfs
  dpkg: error processing package libc-bin (--configure):
   triggers looping, abandoned
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   libc-bin

Just verified that this is repeatable in piuparts and not a one-off
failure.

The new dpkg was long installed and configured before this happened.
Full log attached: nvidia-kernel-amd64_340.46+3.16.0+2.log.gz

I could not reproduce this in an upgrade from wheezy->jessie (i.e. with
dpkg 1.17.21), full log: nvidia-kernel-amd64=340.46+3.16.0+1.log.gz
but of course there are more package versions different ...


If you need more debug information, tell me how to aquire it.


I'm rather opening a new bug than messing with the ones that are supposed
to be fixed in 1.17.22. This could be an independent issue or needs to be
reassigned to another package ... Feel free to downgrade the severity to
not block 1.17.22 from migrating - which should be a good improvement
over 1.17.21.
