Bug#985196: haveged: OpenRD "client" ( arch = armv5tel ) Upgraded from Buster to Bullseye and haveged stoped working

Package: haveged
Version: 1.9.14-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I recently updated my OpenRD "client" ( arch = armv5tel ) from Buster to Bullseye and now haveged crashes.

Please use systemctl status haveged -n 100 or something. The lines
quoted above merely capture the fact that systemd gave up trying to
start it.

FTR, submitter's mail system doesn't want to receive my mails:

Client host [

manually blacklisted

Sigh.

I had the same problem when I upgraded my SheevaPlug (armel) from Buster to
Bullseye.

I found this thread:
https://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=14549

Adding the following service override makes haveged start as expected:

***@puny:~# cat /etc/systemd/system/haveged.service.d/override.conf
[Service]
SystemCallFilter=uname

Please would you consider including that for armel packages?

Cheers,
Dave

I just upgraded my lacie ns2 (armel) from buster to bullseye and found
the same problem.
The workaround from Dave Holland did the job.

I'm also experiencing this issue on my Raspberry Pi. It seems that it
had been reported to upstream [1] and fixed in [2].

I tried Dave Holland’s proposed workaround and it still doesn’t work — Any suggestions?
