# apt-show-versions|grep sysvinit
sysvinit/unstable upgradeable from 2.88dsf-9 to 2.88dsf-11
sysvinit-utils/unstable upgradeable from 2.88dsf-9 to 2.88dsf-11

# telinit u
telinit: Can't open u

I tried to re-install sysvinit but apt-get always wants to finish the 
setup of libc6.

Is there a way to finish the installation of libc6 before restarting 
telinit ?
