Bug#831878: cyphesis-cpp: fails to install in chroot: update-rc.d: error: no runlevel symlinks to modify, aborting!

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: cyphesis-cpp
Version: 0.6.0-4
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install. As
per definition of the release team this makes the package too buggy for
a release, thus the severity.

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Selecting previously unselected package cyphesis-cpp.
  (Reading database ... 
(Reading database ... 9077 files and directories currently installed.)
  Preparing to unpack .../cyphesis-cpp_0.6.0-4_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking cyphesis-cpp (0.6.0-4) ...
  Setting up cyphesis-cpp (0.6.0-4) ...
  update-rc.d: error: no runlevel symlinks to modify, aborting!
  dpkg: error processing package cyphesis-cpp (--configure):
   subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   cyphesis-cpp


This may be related to the fact that piuparts installs the package in a 
minimal chroot, but I've never seen this error message from update-rc.d
(but there have been quite some changes w.r.t. the initscript helpers
recnetly) and most packages behave "sanely" in such a setup.


cheers,

Andreas
