Hello Kees, or anyone else affected,

Accepted systemd into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/237-3ubuntu10.10 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Some systems fail to upgrade due to conflicts between systemd and
  the (now removed from the archive) systemd-shim / upstart.

   * Instead of trying to work out what's the problem in ordering /
  removal of diverts, ensure that systemd is never unpacked whilst
  systemd-shim/upstart are still on disk. Thus declare conflicts against
  systemd-shim/upstart packages in systemd package.

  [Test Case]

   * monitor drop-off of upgrades with below reported problem

   * Check that it is possible to upgrade to bionic's libpam-systemd
  from xenial with systemd-shim installed on xenial, ie.

  lxc launch ubuntu-daily:xenial test-shim-upgrade
  lxc exec test-shim-upgrade
  apt update
  apt install systemd-shim
  wget https://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/s/systemd-shim/systemd-shim_10-3_amd64.deb
  apt install ./systemd-shim_10-3_amd64.deb 
  sed 's/xenial/bionic/' -i /etc/apt/sources.list
  apt update
  apt install systemd

  this currently passes, however, systemd-shim remains installed. It
  should be removed instead. Apt install systemd should have lines like
  this:

  The following packages will be REMOVED:
    systemd-shim
  ...
  Removing 'diversion of /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service to /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service.systemd by systemd-shim'
  ...

  
  [Regression Potential]

   * systemd-shim/upstart are both removed and not supported in bionic,
  thus forcing their removal via conflicts should bring the system into
  an expected state.

  dpkg-divert: error: rename involves overwriting '/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service' with

  Errors were encountered while processing:

  Commenting out the dpkg-divert in systemd-shim's postrm solved this
  for me and I was about to continue the upgrade.
