Warning for ifupdown users
« on: 2018/02/23, 14:24:12 »
I experienced this bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=891139
My system then would not boot because it was waiting forever for network. From reading description of the bug, I believe it was waiting for a wireless adapter I occasionally use with this system, but did not have connected at the time.

I deleted the symlink it created (/etc/systemd/system/network-online.target.wants/ifupdown-wait-online.service ) and put "WAIT_ONLINE_METHOD=none" in /etc/default/networking
System now boots.

Did I do this correctly? I don't even use NetworkManger or systemd.networking service.

I should note that I did not have to kill systemctl to get the upgrade to finish:

I don't know what exactly triggers this, but most people including me (on 3 machines) are not affected by this.
