http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1021969 Bug ID: 1021969 Summary: Any patch applying to both systemd and systemd-sysvinit should have the reboot flag Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.2 Hardware: All OS: openSUSE 42.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Maintenance Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: antoine.mechelynck@gmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: Community User Blocker: --- I almost REOPENED bug 1017976, then I remembered that reopening a bug doesn't necessary make it blip on the radar, especially if it was VERIFIED before. Again, a patch applying to both systemd and systemd-sysvinit has been published without the "reboot" flag. This time it is patch openSUSE-2017-150 on the 42.2 Update-OSS repo. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

You might call this a question of principle: without rebooting, the newly installed systemd (or sysvinit) executable would never be run AFAIK.
Please have look at the systemctl man page, specially the "daemon-reexec" command. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Now I just did. What it doesn't explain is why, after "zypper up -t patch -t package" finishes installing the upgrade to systemd etc. and the bash prompt reappears, running "zypper ps" shows the systemd and systemd-journald executables with the mention "(deleted)". If the daemon had actually reexecuted itself (and not just done a long branch to its own entry point) the executable now being run ought to have been the upgraded one, not the old, deleted, one. So are you sure "systemctl daemon-reexec" is indeed executed as part of the "zypper up" run? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
