Public bug reported: Binary package hint: network-manager
Before the upstart transition, network-manager’s prerm would only stop the daemon if the package was being removed. Now, the prerm stops the daemon unconditionally, which means the network is brought down for the entire duration of any upgrade that includes a new network-manager. This would be fixed by setting DEB_DH_INSTALLINIT_ARGS = -R in debian/rules, except that the transition doesn’t quite work: the old preinst still stops network-manager, and the new postinst tries to restart it, but restarting a stopped Upstart job apparently fails (“restart: Unknown instance: ”). ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Stopped on prerm during upgrade, not just remove https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430878 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
