I just tried to do an upgrade on testing I,m getting several errors.
First snip of output is regarding unknown types. I have no idea what
this is but I seen it before.
SNIP-
Processing triggers for hicolor-icon-theme ...
Processing triggers for gnome-menus ...

Processing triggers for shared-mime-info ...
Unknown media type in type 'chemical/x-alchemy'
[ snip: many more unknown chemistry-related media types ]
Annoying, but utterly harmless AFAIK.
second issue is:
SNIP---
Running depmod.
Running update-initramfs.

I have all the firmware drivers installed at least every package the
says it has anything to do with firmware.
It seems that this driver does not correctly recognize whether it
actually needs the firmware or not. If the device works for you and if
you do not have any boot delays then I would not worry about this too
much.

third issue is:
SNIP---
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-3-686
File descriptor 11 (pipe:[279156]) leaked on lvs invocation. Parent PID
32356: /bin/sh
File descriptor 12 (pipe:[279156]) leaked on lvs invocation. Parent PID
32356: /bin/sh
SNIP---
I have no idea what this is??? Leaks cant be good or OK can they??
I have no idea either. LVS = Linux Virtualization Support? Are you
running this instance of Debian in a VM?
Last issue is with kernel image upgrade; this has failed twice:
[...]
Found Debian GNU/Linux (5.0.1) on /dev/hdb1
Found Debian GNU/Linux (4.0) on /dev/hdc1
done
Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d.

This problem is the most serious one. Line 868 in the postinst script
tries to execute run-parts on the /etc/kernel/postinst.d directory and
it fails for some reason. So the first question is: Which files are in
that directory on your system? (names, properties, are they executable,
etc...)
