The error happens when "invoke-rc.d ofono start" is executed:

invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/ofono not found.

The ofono.postinst script is

http://paste.ubuntu.com/12705917/

being line 31 the offending one. It seems to be some issue related to the systemd transition.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

I tried this in a VM and cannot reproduce this. an you please give me the output of

   sudo sh -x /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d ofono start

on your system? Thanks!

[Josef Andersson (northar)]

Output from terminal, from sudo sh -x /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d ofono start:

[Josef Andersson (northar)]

Doing a sudo apt-get install --reinstall ofono
worked fine for me earlier.

Ah, then you can't reproduce it either? The set -x output indeed looks okay.

[Josef Andersson (northar)]

No, not as of now. This was during the upgrade to 15.10 and now, after doing the --reinstall the package seems ok for me.

[Alfonso Sanchez-Beato (alfonsosanchezbeato)]

In my case I got the error by simply creating a vivid chroot and then installing ofono, it was not even a release upgrade.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Ah, but you created a chroot without a policy-rc.d to not start
services from postinsts? That's much clearer then. You simply can't do
this in a chroot, and mk-sbuild and friends auto-install such a
policy-rc.d.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Josef, were you running this in a chroot as well, or was this your actual system?

[Vyacheslav Sedov (schematronic)]

as early bird got same problem during upgrade from 15.04 to 15.10 - maybe this can help
