Message #5 received at submit@bugs.devuan.org (full text, mbox, reply):

Package: polkitd
Version: 121+compat0.1-6devuan1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

As previously reported, an upgrade of polkitd failed.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

When checking the postinstall script I found that the program systemd-sysusers
from systemd-standalone-sysusers was checked for and used if present.

I found that systemd-standalone-sysusers was installed on this machine as a
dependency of stunnel.

I removed stunel and systemd-standalone-sysusers and the upgrade of polkitd
succeeded.

   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Arthur,

Thanks for this.

I thought we could do without the systemd-sysusers fragement, but it turns out
that's not the case.

I will restore it.

Best wishes

Mark

Message #23 received at 717@bugs.devuan.org (full text, mbox, reply):

hey,

after trying to upgrade to polkitd 124-1devuan1, i get the same apt 
error as bug #718.

systemd-standalone-sysusers was installed while trying upgrade :

apt policy systemd-standalone-sysusers
systemd-standalone-sysusers:
  Εγκατεστημένα: 255.4-1+b1
  Υποψήφιο:      255.4-1+b1
  Πίνακας Έκδοσης:
 *** 255.4-1+b1 500

so, i've purged systemd-standalone-sysusers completely, and afterwards 
polkitd was installed/configured correctly.


apt policy polkitd
polkitd:
  Εγκατεστημένα: 124-1devuan1
  Υποψήφιο:      124-1devuan1
  Πίνακας Έκδοσης:

     123-3devuan1 500

just notifying here, not sure if i should open a new bug report (?)


best,
d
