[Aptitude-devel] Bug#780028: init: aptitude upgrade from wheezy to jessie does not install systemd-sysv

[Paul Wise]

Package: init
Version: 1.22
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-release at lists.debian.org, Ansgar Burchardt <ansgar at debian.org>, systemd at packages.debian.org

I found an upgrade[1][2] path where sysvinit-core is installed instead
of systemd-sysv, while with aptitude dist-upgrade systemd-sysv gets
installed[3]. Ansgar was able to reproduce it by using a simpler method:

      * create a clean Debian 7.8 install
      * add jessie entries to sources.list
      * aptitude upgrade will want to install sysvinit-core instead of
        systemd-sysv.
