Package: upgrade-reports
Version: N/A
Severity: minor

My previous release is: wheezy
I am upgrading to: jessie
Archive date: 2015-04-04
Upgrade date: 2015-04-04, ~14:30 CEST
uname -a before/after upgrade: Linux [redacted] 3.14.17 #1 SMP Sun Aug 17 12:03:04 CEST 2014 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Method: replaced wheezy with jessie in sources.list;
        apt-get update && apt-get install sysvinit-core && apt-get dist-upgrade
        (I installed sysvinit-core to stay with sysv init)

Contents of /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://debian.n-ix.net/debian jessie main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates  main contrib non-free

The upgraded system is a Xen-based vserver (guest), where the kernel is provided
and can't be exchanged.
This was also the reason for the only issue I had while upgrading: udev
has a new udev.preinst script, which checks the installed kernel versions.
There was still an unused kernel package installed from an old squeeze installation
(linux-image-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64), but the running kernel has actually been 3.14.17 for
a long time.
The preinst script didn't detect a recent enough kernel and failed, which was
a little scary at first (as it is a vserver I didn't want to reboot until I
was sure about the situation). But after I had a look at the script, I assumed
that the currently running kernel has to be recent enough and that the running kernel
version just wasn't taken into account.
After forcing the installation as told (touch /etc/udev/kernel-upgrade), the upgrade
was successful and it booted without problems.

Another minor problem I noticed after the upgrade was that some vhosts of apache2
weren't running as expected. But after a look into apache2/NEWS.Debian.gz those
problems were easy to resolve.

In summary I think the upgrade went quite smooth. :-)

Dear reporter,

Thanks for taking the time long ago to submit your upgrade report. I'm
closing these reports now because the Debian releases they were reported
against have reached their end-of-life (some long ago).

Unfortunately it's possible that the report I'm now closing may still
have relevant information for the current release (bullseye). If you
believe that's the case, don't hesitate to reopen the bug, retitle it
and provide further information and it will be seen during the current
freeze period of Debian.

Paul
