Title:
Failed to take /etc/passwd lock: Invalid argument on upgrade
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When I install Ubuntu 24.04 on WSL and then do an `apt-get update`
followed by `apt-get upgrade --yes`, the process fails with message
"Failed to take /etc/passwd lock: Invalid argument" when trying to
execute the post-installation script of systemd.
The full error with context can be seen at
https://github.com/Vampire/setup-
wsl/actions/runs/9532264682/job/26274230057#step:4:258
This started to fail on June 5th with the systemd version 255.4-1ubuntu8.1 being available.
The day before the `apt-get upgrade --yes` did not contain a systemd update and it worked without problem: https://github.com/Vampire/setup-wsl/actions/runs/9359599784/job/25763680833#step:4:296
