Bug#862001: libapt-pkg5.0: Failed to try-restart apt-daily-upgrade.timer: Unit apt-daily-upgrade.timer not found.

Package: libapt-pkg5.0
Version: 1.4.2
Severity: serious

Hi,

When upgrading my system today I saw the following line in the output:

Dépaquetage de libapt-pkg5.0:amd64 (1.4.2) sur (1.4.1) ...
Paramétrage de libapt-pkg5.0:amd64 (1.4.2) ...
Failed to try-restart apt-daily-upgrade.timer: Unit apt-daily-upgrade.timer not found.

It seems that the libapt-pkg5.0 postinst script contains the following
snippet but that the apt-daily-upgrade.timer and apt-daily.timer are not
shipped in that package (they are in apt package instead):

# Automatically added by dh_systemd_start
if [ -d /run/systemd/system ]; then
        systemctl --system daemon-reload >/dev/null || true
        if [ -n "$2" ]; then
                _dh_action=try-restart
        else
                _dh_action=start
        fi
        deb-systemd-invoke $_dh_action apt-daily-upgrade.timer apt-daily.timer >/dev/null || true
fi
# End automatically added section

That code (or that file) should be moved around between apt and libapt-pkg5.0 packages.

Regards,

Laurent Bigonville
