I reveived some help from anarcat on irc to work around this issue and unblock upgrades on my system. While I think a fix would be nice for this issue, I'm reporting here how I got around this in case others end up in the same situation as I was and are looking to continue upgrading their sid machine: "apt remove debian-security-support" was triggering the hook and made it impossible to remove the package, but "apt purge ..." did work. so in order to unblock things one might want to run: apt purge debian-security-support apt update && apt upgrade apt install debian-security-support cheers!
