Package: cloud-init Version: 25.1.4-1 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer, I was attempting to update from Debian 11.6 to Debian 13.0 and noticed cloud-init config to be non-functional. * hostname was not changed * resolv.conf blank * sshd keys not generating I am installing both Debian 11.6 and 13.0 through Packer, and deployed through Terraform to a Proxmox server. Both cloud-init and dkms were being installed via a preseed file. Additionally, systemd reported a circular dependency on boot: Job cloud-init-network.service/start deleted to break ordering cycle starting with sysinit.target/start journalctl -b | egrep "Found": Aug 25 01:29:21 test systemd[1]: networking.service: Found ordering cycle on network-pre.target/start Aug 25 01:29:21 test systemd[1]: networking.service: Found dependency on dkms.service/start Aug 25 01:29:21 test systemd[1]: networking.service: Found dependency on basic.target/start Aug 25 01:29:21 test systemd[1]: networking.service: Found dependency on sysinit.target/start Aug 25 01:29:21 test systemd[1]: networking.service: Found dependency on cloud-init-network.service/start Aug 25 01:29:21 test systemd[1]: networking.service: Found dependency on networking.service/start What worked was directly editing and deleting the line in /usr/lib/systemd/system/cloud-init-network.service: BEFORE=sysinit.target cloud-init-network.service was able to go and all three symptoms were resolved. On closer inspection with circular dependencies, I noticed dkms being installed in my preseed file. dkms was also present in all instances of circular dependency logs. Removing dkms from the preseed packages resolves the issue. I do not need the package installed, but I am reporting regardless.
