How did you run the upgrade? Was this some automated upgrade with frontend dialog that didn't have a controlling tty? I've tried to use the fronends dialog, readline and noninteractive. Neither of them show this problem for me. The results I got were: - dialog: it's not showing me the default list of services to restart. Just pressing enter doesn't restart anything. I believe this to be a bug in debconf. However it does properly configure the package. - readline: Works as expected - noninteractive: Restarts the services, but doesn't show the message of why.

Hmmhh, any ideas what could return 255 in the post-inst script? The bug log shows that atleast the debconf message was displayed, which means we atleast got to this part: db_version 2.0 db_reset libssl0.9.8/restart-services db_set libssl0.9.8/restart-services $services db_input critical libssl0.9.8/restart-services || true db_go || true By looking at the number of empty lines in the bug report, it seem to me atleast this was done too: db_get libssl0.9.8/restart-services # Arghhh, close all the stupid debconf pipes db_stop if [ x$RET != x ] then services=$RET answer=yes else answer=no fi echo But then this part wasn't executed: if [ $answer = yes ] [ $services != ]; then echo Restarting services possibly affected by the upgrade: [...] fi else echo Nothing to restart. fi fi # end upgrading and $2 lt 0.9.8c-2 fi # Upgrading fi # Automatically added by dh_makeshlibs if [ $1 = configure ]; then ldconfig fi Which basicly leaves the if or the ldconfig, which both seem unlikely.
