well, reassigning 3 years old bugs isn't really helping anyone…
especially if there are no details. Even worse if you pull a "I had a
complete unrelated issue I haven't reported a couple days ago, so that
years old issue here must be a bug in apt". After all, in your
reasoning, if it would be a general bug in apt, wouldn't apt be chest
deep in such bugreports? We are chest deep in all sorts of bugreports
for sure, but that can at least be partially attributed to being
considered a good dumping ground for bugs package maintainers don't want
to work on themselves. A strong hint for that is apologizing in advanced
btw… :(

Failing postinst are usually bugs in the package itself as it is using
things which aren't (fully) installed it isn't allowed to use by policy,
but does anyway. A huge pointer in that direction tends to be that just
re-running apt/dpkg solves the issue. That doesn't need to generate a
huge load of bugreports as there is a good chance that the maintainer is
lucky enough to get the mistake hidden in 99% of all cases anyhow.
Classic example is using python.

In your case, back in that version the package didn't seem to have a
manual postinst script (something which you could have checked…), just
an autogenerated by debhelper calling ldconfig (essential in libc-bin).
That failing indicates more hardware issues. No opportunity for an apt
bug here in any case.

Anyhow, I see nothing actionable in this report for us, so closing as
incomplete…
