I cannot reproduce this with doing a (partial) lucid->precise upgrade in
a lucid live system. However, I think I see one thing which could go
wrong:
/var/lib/dpkg/info/x11-common.preinst correctly does
if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt-nl "1:7.6+7ubuntu7"; then
remove_conffile_lookup x11-common "/etc/init/failsafe-x.conf"
fi
to clean up its own old conffile, so that xdiagnose can put its own.
xdiagnose also Replaces: x11-common (<< 1:7.6+7ubuntu1), but that
doesn't prevent xdiagnose from being unpacked before x11-common is
upgraded. So I think xdiagnose should grow a
Conflicts: x11-common (<< 1:7.6+7ubuntu1)
to ensure that x11-common gets upgraded before xdiagnose gets installed.
This should make sure that there is no conffile prompt.
