I cannot reproduce this bug. In my case, when upgrading, the nscd
service is first stopped (see nscd.prerm) before being started again (in
nscd.postinst), so the upgrade works just fine.
Witness:
ubuntu@lucid-server:~$ dpkg -l nscd
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Cfg-files/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend

For those affected, could it be that /etc/init.d/nscd is not executable
for some reason?
