I have succeed doing the upgrade of this important 14.04 machine to 16.04 I went through the long error logs /var/crash/sysv-rc.0.crash and the longer one on do-release upgrade
and I found this piece of info... I had a custom init.d file that depend on rc.local but rc.local depends on $all there is a script that tries to convert init script into systemd but could not figure out which comes first my script depending on rc.local and rc.local depending on $all did not make sense. I also deleted all packages that I could and the upgrade succeeded list of packages I have removed ``` libapt-inst1.4 libbind9-80 libboost-iostreams1.46.1 libcdt4 libcgraph5 libcolorhug1 libdconf0 libdns81 libdrm-nouveau1a libgcj12 libgd2-noxpm libgphoto2-port10 libgraph4 libgvc5 libgvpr1 libicu48 libisc83 libisccc80 libisccfg82 libkadm5clnt-mit8 libkdb5-6 liblcms1 libllvm3.0 liblwres80 libmagickcore4 libmagickwand4 libmpc2 libsystemd-daemon0 libtasn1-3 libtiff4 libtiffxx0c2 libudev0 linux-image-3.2.0-68-virtual linux-image-3.2.0-69-virtual linux-image-3.2.0-72-virtual linux-image-3.2.0-77-virtual linux-image-3.2.0-84-virtual linux-image-3.2.0-86-virtual linux-image-3.2.0-89-virtual linux-image-3.2.0-97-virtual linux-image-3.2.0-98-virtual libcairo2:amd64 librsvg2-2:amd64 libcairo2-dev:amd64 libcairo-script-interpreter2:amd64 libcairo-gobject2:amd64 librsvg2-dev:amd64 libpangocairo-1.0-0:amd64 librsvg2-common:amd64 libpangoft2-1.0-0:amd64 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev libmagickcore-6.q16-3-extra:amd64 gir1.2-rsvg-2.0:amd64 libmagickcore-6.q16-dev:amd64 python3-lib2to3 python3-distutils libglib2.0-dev-bin libmagickcore-dev libglib2.0-dev:amd64 libmagickwand-dev libmagickwand-6.q16-dev:amd64 ``` -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to sysvinit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1607874 Title: package sysv-rc 2.88dsf-59.3ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Status in sysvinit package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: ERROR: Cannot create report: [Errno 17] File exists: '/var/crash/sysv- rc.0.crash' ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: sysv-rc 2.88dsf-59.3ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-57.95-generic 3.13.11-ckt21 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-57-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.21 Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri Jul 29 23:52:04 2016 DuplicateSignature: package:sysv-rc:2.88dsf-59.3ubuntu2:subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-04-18 (833 days ago) InstallationMedia: PackageArchitecture: all RelatedPackageVersions: dpkg 1.18.4ubuntu1.1 apt 1.0.1ubuntu2.14 SourcePackage: sysvinit Title: package sysv-rc 2.88dsf-59.3ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to xenial on 2016-07-29 (0 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sysvinit/+bug/1607874/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
