Public bug reported:
etckeeper on xenial does not kick initial commit on its fresh install.
It seems ubuntu patch has debian/etckeeper.postinst over debian/postinst
which has a logic to kick `etckeeper init`.
$ ls -1 etckeeper-1.18.1*/debian/*postinst
etckeeper-1.18.1/debian/postinst
etckeeper-1.18.1ubuntu2/debian/etckeeper.postinst
etckeeper-1.18.1ubuntu2/debian/postinst
[etckeeper-1.18.1ubuntu2/debian/postinst]
80 if [ "$2" = "" ] && [ -e "/etc/etckeeper/etckeeper.conf" ]; then
81 # Fresh install.
82 . /etc/etckeeper/etckeeper.conf || true
83 if [ -n "$VCS" ] && [ -x "`which $VCS 2>/dev/null`" ];
then
84 if etckeeper init; then
85 if ! etckeeper commit "Initial commit";
then
86 echo "etckeeper commit failed;
run it by hand" >&2
87 fi
88 else
89 echo "etckeeper init failed; run it by
hand" >&2
90 fi
91 else
92 echo "etckeeper init not ran as $VCS is not
installed" >&2
93 fi
94 fi
