E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
The problem is the "modprobe -q uinput" in /etc/init.d/mouseemu.
I have a localy compile kernel and without this module. So the modprobe fails
and the upgrade also fails.
I can propose the patch:

No uinput device found! Make sure the uinput module is loaded
or CONFIG_INPUT_UINPUT is compiled into the kernel.
So it is clear something bad happened.
Note that this bug should not happen with a Debian kernel package so you may
decide to just close this bug report.
