> Attempts to install libjson-c2_0.11-4ubuntu2.2_amd64.deb result in the same lockup which can only be recovered with a hard reboot.
The 2.2 version includes only a revert of the patch, so for any system affected by this, the currently-running init still contains the faulty code, and the fixed package's post-install script calls telinit on the currently-running init, which triggers the problem. Work is in progress to produce a new version that also adjusts the package's post-install script to detect the problematic version and avoid calling telinit. For impacted systems, you can follow this process to upgrade to the 0.11-4ubuntu2.2_amd64.deb package version: - Obtain the latest package: ``` $ curl -LO https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/libjson-c2_0.11-4ubuntu2.2_amd64.deb ``` - Unpack (install without configuring) the package: ``` $ dpkg --unpack libjson-c2_0.11-4ubuntu2.2_amd64.deb ``` - Reboot; this is mandatory in order to proceed: ``` $ sudo reboot ``` - Configure the package: ``` $ sudo apt install -f ``` -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1878723 Title: Kernel panic when used with upstart after 0.11-4ubuntu2.1 update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/json-c/+bug/1878723/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
