Merging it, using the higher of the two severity values. apt maintainers and/or the release team are of course welcome to downgrade it as desired, I'm not trying to play severity inflation games here; but it seems to be coming up somewhat frequently and it isn't obvious how to recover, so RC severity does not seem disproportionate. I notice that before the failing upgrade, Yaroslav had dpkg 1.17.21 and apt 1.0.9.4 (if I'm reading the right status-file backup), which means he did not have the fix for https://bugs.debian.org/769609 in apt. dpkg and apt were upgraded to 1.17.23 and 1.0.9.6 earlier in the same batch that failed with this dbus trigger thing, which I assume means dbus was upgraded with the old apt (although maybe the new dpkg). Is the fix for https://bugs.debian.org/769609 expected to fix this particular issue, or am I misreading it? > I don't think this can be worked around in dbus, barring the removal > of its triggers. If it's absolutely necessary, I might be able to back out the trigger for jessie, because it is *meant* to be non-essential: dbus-daemon is meant to use inotify to monitor the system services directory, and that feature works fine for me. However, I've had reports that it doesn't work for everyone, hence the trigger (and in any case it seems more predictable/deterministic to use a trigger to kick off the reload when all new packages are known to be fully in place). Or if dropping it down to interest-noawait would help, that isn't really semantically correct, but it's probably acceptable in practice? <https://bugs.debian.org/740139> is the bug report that prompted me to add the trigger, FWIW.
