In case it's not clear, here's the final upstart task that I settled upon:

I had similar worries about race conditions, but this code path is supposed
to be happening so rarely, that the race conditions would probably be even
rarer.
That being said, that does seem like a cleaner solution. File a different
bug and we'll track it there. It's just going to need some good

If the effort is just to get any packages in main by Lucid, I don't see why
it's not achievable.
Fixing all of main isn’t good enough for many users (openafs is itself
in universe). Whether it’s acceptable to break universe is up to the
Ubuntu TB, but there’s absolutely no point in breaking
Even if it is desirable to convert openafs-client to upstart right now,
forcing dkms to load after rc would force openafs-client to load after
rc. This will be a problem for other services that depend on openafs,
such as apache2 installations with docroot in /afs.
dkms provides kernel modules,

Yes yes, I understand that. And I want very much to live in that
I've committed a solution to this upstream:
http://linux.dell.com/git/?p=dkms.git;a=commit;h=3692368c51692003a56d5c4a174f7d712aace71e
I tested it on both desktop and server installations, the script still
runs in both scenarios.

You added “or stopping rc RUNLEVEL=[2345]” rather than “or starting rc
RUNLEVEL=[2345]”. This will break openafs-modules-dkms because
/etc/init.d/openafs-client (which requires the kernel module to have
already been built) is started from rc.
** Changed in: dkms (Ubuntu)
Status: Fix
Anders:
Then openafs-client should be converted to an upstart script that depends on
DKMS having finished running

And it will (bug 483506), but I worry that there may be other
initscripts with the same problem. In any event, should we really force
all of these transitions to happen at exactly the same time?

It's very early in the cycle, so this is the time that these types of
things should be switched over and ironed out. I'm going to adjust the
DKMS task back to Fix Committed. If you've got some other feedback
about how this upstart script should look before I upload it, feel free
to leave it

Well, here are all the logs created in /var/log during a reboot with
--verbose after ‘dkms remove -m nvidia -v 185.18.36 -k $(uname -r)’. As
you can see, gdm started too early to find the nvidia module that dkms
was still in the process of compiling. The nvidia driver could be
loaded fine
Can anyone else confirm this is indeed happening? Sounds like it could
cause a lot of bad breakage if so.
Anders, any additional data you could provide (log files, error
messages, etc.) could help move this issue faster towards becoming
actionable.
