I did an apt-get upgrade on my Jessie vps, hosted by DigitalOcean. As many people know, DigitalOcean provides kernels from the host, rather than allowing the VM to boot from its own kernel image. Thankfully there is a workaround using kexec to reboot, loading a newer, more up-to-date kernel if DO falls behind on security fixes.Now, I cannot get dpkg to configure libselinux1:amd64. An update for it was put out, but dpkg just causes a kernel panic. This happened originally on my apt-get upgrade, and now it's happening when I run dpkg --configure -a. I'm not sure what to do at this point. Any tips would be helpful. I'm running the 3.10.11 Jessie kernel through kexec, but when the VM first boots, it boots from a 3.11.5 Sid kernel supplied by DigitalOcean because for some reason in their kernel management they only have Stable and Unstable and no 64-bit Testing kernels. Go figure.init: log.c:861: Assertion failed in log_serialise: log->ioinit: Caught abort, core dumpedKernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000600The install still works, I'm just unable to update any packages until this is fixed.
May have broken a Debian installation: 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' won't run
