Is this a show-stopper or just a nuisance error message?
The latter. When you actually do the dist-upgrade, it will work (or at least not hit this particular problem). The insserv package in squeeze breaks the lenny sysv-rc package, while the squeeze sysv-rc package depends on the new insserv -- a kind of dependency loop that requires temporarily auto-deconfiguring sysv-rc.
