Package: base Severity: serious Justification: Policy 9.11 Dear Maintainer,
I initially reported this problem on the debian-user list (17 Dec 2014). Here follow the description of the problem that I described: I'm running Debian testing (jessie) on an HP EliteBook 840 G1 laptop. Everything goes reasonably well, even very well, except that after running apt-get update/upgrade on Monday (15 December) I cannot halt (poweroff) the computer. When I try to switch it off it just reboots. I manage to get it in sleep mode by pressing the the physical start button and this is what I'm doing since then. No previous problems in this sense before that upgrade. I have 'intel-microcode' and 'firmware-linux-free' installed from the beginning. Some suggested that it could be a systemd-related problem. After that report I was able to sometimes halt the computer correctly either from the gnome interface or from the console. This has not happenend again in the last three weeks. I am force to halt the computer by letting it restart and use the power switch when GRUB starts. Of course, what I expect is to be able to halt the computer cleanly, as easily as possible but at the very least by root on the console. I apologise if this is not the right place to report this bug and I would appreciate suggestions about where it should go. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
