Jeff,
It looks like you have systemd installed on ubuntu14 -- at least this is what
I can infer from the package you've tried to install omd-1.20.trusty.amd64.deb.
Systemd is not officially distributed with ubuntu14 that comes with upstart.
Please, make sure to stay with the init system that comes with your distro
version.
FWIW, Just tried to reproduce on the ubuntu trusty and everything works
smoothly.
