[Bug 858122] Re: incomplete migration to /run (shutdown script order has been demolished)

[Jeff Burns]

It looks like I'm having the "Waiting for network configuration" issue as well, but while an annoyance, I've ignored it until today.  I figured it was related to an extra NIC being unconfig'd.   I just config'd LACP and I've still got it, so went hunting for a bug.    

I checked and I've got the symlinks.  The weird thing is the symlink for
/var/run to /run was created ~2.5 hours ago when I last did an
update/reboot, while the other is from my upgrade to 11.10.  Not sure if
that is significant.   Upgrade path natty --> oneric

ls -l /var/run /var/lock
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2011-10-10 21:13 /var/lock -> /run/lock
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2011-10-24 19:48 /var/run -> /run

I didn't see this on an Ubuntu Server with 4 NIC's LACP'd going from
Natty to Oneric, nor on my Kubuntu laptop, just on this desktop.  I can
get any other details if needed.

Bug description:
  I had the exact same issue documented as
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/807306
  on upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10. Opening new bug as req.

  Removing the existing /var/run and /var/run/lock and replacing with
  sym links as per comment 76 there fixed it.

  The impact of this was a total lack of system (wireless) networking
  coming up - this gives a >! minute pause during boot, as well as a
  subsequent total failure to be able to log into X (KDE or GNOME
  sessions give a cryptic error related to DBUS).

  I've just run an apt-get update/upgrade after *finally* getting back
  into my new 11.10 beta 2 system, and no updates to the mountall show
  up... therefore I assume this bug is still present.
