francois1: 
note that the workaround does not fix the problem of procps failing to start 
via upstart,etc
It only allows the dpgk process to complete the install/upgrade process with 
out 'hoseing' the system.
if you rename procps.conf.old back to procps.conf it will still fail.

2nd workaround:
> I downloaded (procps & libprocps0) [1:3.3.3-2ubuntu7] from
> http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/procps
> http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/libprocps0
> and manually installed the updated version
** this correct the underlying problem, and you can rename procps.conf.old 
propps.conf
