Package: dbus
Version: 1.8.12-1
Severity: critical

Decided to upgrade my jessie/sid system today to see if remedy for hangouts not
working came about (#770659) and upgrade failed because of dbus.  Here is an
output of  (sudo apt-get -f install -y 2>&1 | xsel -i) and I marked with
critical severity since now I can't use apt for anything (like build-dep):

Control: notfound -1 apt/1.0.9.3
Control: severity -1 normal

Hi everyone,

as announced by Nils in the recent Jessie status update [0] trigger
cycle detection was pulled from the jessie release, which means the
reports here are no longer reproducible/valid and hence it was requested
that we reflect that accordingly.

Further more, especially the dbus issue reported in 3 out of 4 bugs here
was no longer present even before that as dbus in version 1.8.14-2
switched to -noawait triggers, which can't produce loops by definition.
See [1] if you are interested in how that happened with -await triggers
and for why it can't happen with -noawait (beware, technical).

This means that there is neither a new/fixed version of apt nor that
there exists a situation in which this is a bug, which is what I try to
model by marking as notfound and downgrading to normal – after all, if
it doesn't affect any release anymore at the moment, it can't effect
(and/or delay) the jessie release as a release critical bug.


The issue of trigger loops as such will be revisited after the release
of jessie. There are potentially massive changes needed in all levels of
package management to cope with issues found while the check was active
in dpkg, so there is even a chance that even the theories outlined in
the bugs here is no longer completely true, so that it is better to open
new bugs for then current issues rather than keeping these now historic
reports open for the possibility of them maybe still applying in the
post-jessie future.


At this point I would like to thank everyone reporting, discussing and
working on this bugclass! It might look at first like this was in vain
now that the feature itself is pulled and me closing these bugs, but the
jessie release benefited from all changes made in this context here and
this is absolutely something we will revisit soon on dpkg@ and deity@!

We are all just admitting that this will take longer and is harder to
complete than initially anticipated, which is a good step forward all by
itself already and helps focusing at the task of releasing jessie now.

So thanks again and "see you all on the other side".


Best regards

David Kalnischkies
