[Bug 1587903] Re: invoke-rc.d does not start services in containers

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package init-system-helpers - 1.35ubuntu1

---------------
init-system-helpers (1.35ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - init: Drop sysvinit-core as alternative init system.

init-system-helpers (1.35) unstable; urgency=medium

  * invoke-rc.d: When running under systemd, query systemctl is-enabled
    instead of checking for rc?.d/ links. This allows operation without
    sysv-rc with packages that ship native systemd units. Packages which only
    ship an init.d script continue to need sysv-rc and runlevels, of course.
    (Closes: #827191, LP: #1587903)

Title:
  invoke-rc.d does not start services in containers

  Fix Released
Status in init-system-helpers package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In current yakkety, invoke-rc.d start is broken in containers:

  $ lxc launch images:ubuntu/yakkety/amd64 y1
  $ lxc exec y1 systemctl stop cron
  $ lxc exec y1 invoke-rc.d cron start
  $ lxc exec y1 systemctl status cron
  ● cron.service - Regular background program processing daemon
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/cron.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
     Active: inactive (dead) since Wed 2016-06-01 13:48:50 UTC; 9s ago

  "invoke-rc.d cron stop" does seem to work, though. This is a
  regression in recent yakkety.
