Bug#854041: Info received (Bug#854041: Acknowledgement (systemd: dpkg fails for systemd package when upgrading from jessie to stretch))

[Carsten Brandt]

I have tried to reproduce this on a clean installation of jessie inside
of an LXC container but that went fine. So it seems to be something
specific to my system.


# on a debian system as root:

# on stretch
apt-get install lxc
# or if you are on jessie you need lxc from the backports to have proper
network config out of the box
#apt-get install -t jessie-backports lxc

# set up lxc networking as described in
#
https://wiki.debian.org/LXC#Minimal_changes_to_set_up_networking_for_LXC_for_Debian_.2BIBw-stretch.2BIB0_.28testing.29

lxc-create -n test-upgrade -t debian -- -r jessie
lxc-start -n test-upgrade -d
lxc-attach -n test-upgrade

# in the container run the following:
sed -i s/jessie/stretch/ /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
