[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#816868: sysv-rc: error during upgrade due to systemd timeout

[Farmbuyer]

Package: sysv-rc
Version: 2.88dsf-59.3
Severity: normal


Got this today while upgrading:

Preparing to unpack .../sysv-rc_2.88dsf-59.3_all.deb ...
Unpacking sysv-rc (2.88dsf-59.3) over (2.88dsf-59.2) ...
Setting up sysvinit-utils (2.88dsf-59.3) ...
Setting up sysv-rc (2.88dsf-59.3) ...
Processing triggers for systemd (228-2) ...
Failed to execute operation: Connection timed out
dpkg: error processing package systemd (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 systemd
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Failed to perform requested operation on package.  Trying to recover:
Setting up libquadmath0:i386 (5.3.1-10) ...
[lots more "Setting up" messages, none related to sysv]

I've no idea what, exactly, it's complaining about.

The sysv-rc package itself claims to be installed okay and of the correct
version when queried with "dpkg -s", although I haven't yet actually
tried rebooting.
