This is a bug in the uck script, not in upstart.  It deactivates initctl
by doing the following:

        echo "Deactivating initctl..."
        chroot "$REMASTER_DIR" mv /sbin/initctl /sbin/initctl.uck_blocked
        chroot "$REMASTER_DIR" ln -s /bin/true /sbin/initctl

By not using dpkg-divert on initctl, when a new version of upstart is
itself unpacked as part of the upgrade, /sbin/initctl is overwritten.

** Package changed: upstart (Ubuntu) => uck (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: uck (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Triaged
