package: sysvinit-core: version: 3.08-5 severity: important justification: breaks unrelated software in uncommon environment
I was curious about a discussion on debian-devel, so I tried to install sysvinit and wdm at the same time. I tried: podman run --rm -ti debian:unstable apt update apt install sysvinit-core And my container crashed when sysvinit-core was installed and restarted. To get things "installed" I copied /dev/null over the sysvinit-core postinst. I'd like to be able to create a podman or docker image running sysvinit. To do that I need to be able to install sysvinit with a container that has /bin/bash or /bin/sh as an entry point and then image that container into an image that has init as the entry point. For that to work sysvinit-core has to be able to install even when there is no init system. --Sam
