Package: udev
Version: 254.3-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Breaks unrelated software, causes boot failure on some systems
Dear systemd Maintainers,
As reported in the follow-up to #1052116[1], udev's postinst uses update-rc.d's
-f option which breaks the transition of /etc/init.d/udev to bin:initscripts and
causes non-systemd systems to fail to boot.
Michael, as discussed yesterday on #debian-systemd, I am very grateful for your
quick commit of a fix[2].
This bug is to prevent unintended migration of the broken udev to trixie.
With thanks and best wishes
Mark
