I tried 2 scenarios: 1) install aiccu...-14.1 with blank username&password -> dist-upgrade 2) install aiccu...-14.1 with bogus username&password -> dist-upgrade In both scenarios the upgrade went ok. In the first scenario aiccu isn't even started and in the second debconf only asked for a password (gave bogus again). So with default installs/upgrades I can't reproduce the problem you describe, only if you deliberate break/change the aiccu config but then you got the same as with openssh-server. There are 3 situations aiccu bails out with an exit 1: 1) configuration file doesn't exist 2) configuration is incorrect 3) AICCU not configured to daemonize The last one could/should be an exit 0 but the other two should really be an exit 1 (and you run into #2).
