Hi Dave, Thanks for the thoughtful reply!
> After all, if it's simulating a reinstallation, shouldn't it restart the service? [...] Usually, yes, I agree it should restart the service. In this specific postgresql-common case, debian/rules was crafted so a restart would not happen at this point: https://salsa.debian.org/postgresql/postgresql- common/-/blob/master/debian/rules#L27-31 Now, while the test suite regression is only present in Ubuntu (and not in Debian) due to the dpkg-reconfigure delta, a change of behavior was also introduced in the upgrade path due to the debhelper change at https://salsa.debian.org/debian/debhelper/-/commit/742b0c5ac8f4a6cfcd699f08915a8109a5ebec35. The service, which would be left untouched on postgresql-common upgrades, will now be stopped on upgrades. Finally, > You are certainly correct that [we should add --no-stop-on-upgrade option to dh_installsystemd?] This would restore the previous, designed behavior of the package upgrade path. Still, the preinst script would differ from the Debian one. Therefore, I filed https://code.launchpad.net/~athos-ribeiro/ubuntu/+source/postgresql- common/+git/postgresql-common/+merge/422669 and will also file a Debian bug to include the Debian maintainers in the discussion before we do introduce the delta here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1973382 Title: autopkgtests failures due to debhelper 13.6 changes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/postgresql-common/+bug/1973382/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
