Are any or all 3 actually upgrades from 12.1, rather than "installations"?

If upgrades, maybe it's actually the upgrade process that is/was broken.

Something to try, especially if upgrades:

If sysvinit-init is installed, replace it with systemd-sysvinit. If 
systemd-sysvinit is installed, replace it with sysvinit-init. Systemd was 
still rather far from complete in 12.2, and might be poorly compatible with 
whatever your deviations from default may be.
