@ the OP: "It's not clear where the bug is in this, but I was doing a LTS release upgrade and svscan was already installed and running"
I would think the bug should be against the daemontools-run package, that it is unable to apply an update to itself. Correct?
Seems to me a regression from the 14.04 package, which was able to update the 12.04 version during the LTS upgrade process.
