What about offering an option to disable one or more of the conflicting scripts? The other day I had a problem with the quota package and had to play with files and packages in a more or less dirty way to get around the problem.
apt-get upgrade log: Setting up quota (3.16-1) ... insserv: warning: script 'K04swapspace' missing LSB tags and overrides insserv: warning: script 'K04gdomap' missing LSB tags and overrides insserv: warning: script 'K03dhttpd' missing LSB tags and overrides insserv: warning: script 'gdomap' missing LSB tags and overrides insserv: Service portmap has to be enabled for service quotarpc insserv: exiting now! dpkg: error processing quota (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: quota E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) In my case I really don't need quotarpc and I won't install portmap just to satisfy a boot dependency of some script I don't use.
