 Heya, I've just upgraded a family laptop from wheezy to jessie. The general
 experience has been very good and quick, with no noticeable breakages. The 
 only
 problem is that the first apt-get dist-upgrade (after an apt-get upgrade,
 as recommended by the release notes) failed due to a trigger loop. Here are 
 the
 details (messages translated to English by hand, as the upgraded laptop had an
 Italian locale) :
 
   configuring libdevmapper1.02.1:amd64 (2:1.02.90-2)
   trigger loop detected
 potentially responsible packages:
   gconf2 - initramfs-tools
 awaiting triggers that might be non resolvable
   libc-bin: ldconfig
   initramfs-tools: update-initramfs
   gconf2: /usr/share/gconf/schemas
   dpkg: error while processing libc-bin (--configure):
 trigger loop, giving up
 
 (If needed, I have a picture of the tty console on my phone, which I can
 provide.)
 
 After a few dpkg --configure --pending / apt-get -f install the problem
 went away and I managed to succesfully complete apt-get dist-upgrade.
 
 Cheers.

Seems to be #771730, so it should disappear once the new dpkg migrates.
 Would be possible for you to re-try the upgrade where you upgrade into
the dpkg from sid instead of the Jessie version?

Thanks. I've looked into the bug reports of the mentioned packages for
duplicates, but didn't look into dpkg itself.

Unfortunately not :-/, as the laptop has been upgraded now, and I don't
have handy another laptop with a similar/identical configuration.

Cheers.
