[Bug 1269731] Re: init crashed with SIGSEGV

[David Oftedal]

I stand corrected! Now that you mention it, upstart would have been
upgraded at some point during the upgrade, and that could very well have
been after the upgrade of libc which caused the kernel panic.

The upgrade was from the previous version, i.e. something like 13.10,
with updates installed.

Either way, after reading your post, I ran "telinit u" to verify, and
this time it runs without any incident.

So it looks like it has been fixed as stated above. Apologies for the
false alarm, and thank you for the explanation!
