[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: udev
Version: 215-17+deb8u5
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

when running an aptitude full-upgrade i got an error that a group
already existed. I would expect the upgrade to check for the existence
instead of giving the user this error during upgrade.

   * What led up to the situation?
   sudo aptitude full-upgrade
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   <snip>
    Setting up udev (215-17+deb8u5) ...
    addgroup: The group `input' already exists as a system group. Exiting.
   <snip> 
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
   no error when the group already exists

Closes: 837871 872119 873185 873661 873708
Changes:
 systemd (234-3) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   [ Martin Pitt ]
   * Various fixes for the upstream autopkgtest.
 .
   [ Felipe Sateler ]
   * Add fdisk to the dependencies of the upstream autopkgtest.
     The upstream autopkgtest uses sfdisk, which is now in the non-essential
     fdisk package. (Closes: #872119)
   * Disable nss-systemd on udeb builds
   * Correctly disable resolved on udeb builds
   * Help fix collisions in libsystemd-shared symbols by versioning them.
     Backport upstream patch to version the symbols provided in the private
     library, so that they cannot confuse unversioned pam modules or libraries
     linked into them. (Closes: #873708)
 .
   [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
   * Cherrypick upstream networkd-test.py assertion/check fixes.
     This resolves ADT test suite failures, when running tests under lxc/lxd
     providers.
   * Cherrypick arm* seccomp fixes.
     This should resolve ADT test failures, on arm64, when running as root.
   * Disable KillUserProcesses, yet again, with meson this time.
   * initramfs-tools: trigger udevadm add actions with subsystems first.
     This updates the initramfs-tools init-top udev script to trigger udevadm
     actions with type specified. This mimics the systemd-udev-trigger.service.
     Without type specified only devices are triggered, but triggering
     subsystems may also be required and should happen before triggering the
     devices. This is the case for example on s390x with zdev generated udev
     rules. (LP: #1713536)
 .
   [ Michael Biebl ]
   * (Re)add --quiet flag to addgroup calls.
     This is now safe with adduser having been fixed to no longer suppress
     fatal error messages if --quiet is used. (Closes: #837871)
   * Switch back to default GCC (Closes: #873661)
   * Drop systemd-timesyncd.service.d/disable-with-time-daemon.conf.
     All major NTP implementations ship a native service file nowadays with a
     Conflicts=systemd-timesyncd.service so this drop-in is no longer
     necessary. (Closes: #873185)
