I just upgraded a machine from lenny to squeeze (still unreleased).

When I run:

dpkg-reconfigure sysv-rc

I get the notification:

Unable to migrate to dependency-based boot system
Tests have determined that problems in the boot system exist which prevent 
migration to dependency-based boot sequencing:
insserv: warning: script 'S25libdevmapper1.02' missing LSB tags and override,
insserv: warning: script 'libdevmapper1.02' missing LSB tags ...

dpkg -S /etc/init.d/libdevmapper1.02 
libdevmapper1.02: /etc/init.d/libdevmapper1.02

This system has both:

 dpkg -l |grep libdevmapper1
ii  libdevmapper1.02                   2:1.02.12-1                  The Linux 
Kernel Device Mapper userspace library
ii  libdevmapper1.02.1                 2:1.02.48-4                  The Linux 
Kernel Device Mapper userspace library

As the original bug reporter notes, libdevmapper1.02.1 should conflict with 
libdevmapper1.02, and they should not be installable in parallel. However, the 
old package actually has to get purged to remove  /etc/init.d/libdevmapper1.02

This will probably frustrate a number of people who will not figure out that 
they need to manually

apt-get remove --purge libdevmapper1.02 

when upgrading to squeeze and being asked if they would like to switch to 
dependency-based sequencing.
