[Bug 1447654] Re: installing policykit-1 hangs under systemd

 

I can reproduce this in a minimal VM by purging policykit-1, restarting
systemd, and installing a service:

sudo dpkg -P policykit-1 apport
sudo systemctl daemon-reexec
sudo apt-get install policykit-1 apport

This reminds me a lot of bug 1423811, but this might actually lead to a
simpler test case and a different angle for understanding this.

Workaround: Install policykit-1 first, then reboot, then install
everything else.

Thanks for your report!

Bug description:
  I've installed 15.04 using the current amd64 netboot.tar.gz (MD5 =
  6566065bf73a9c81feeddf5520dda122). It installs fine, but I'm getting
  errors installing packages (such as lubuntu-core).

  Last few lines from apt-get:
  Processing triggers for systemd (219-7ubuntu3) ...
  Error getting authority: Error initializing authority: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1: Timeout was reached (g-io-error-quark, 24)

  Errors were encountered while processing:
   systemd
  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


  I've done a second install using the server iso and lubuntu-core
  installs fine on that. The only thing different was my install media.
