[Bug 937638] Re: package initscripts 2.88dsf-13.10ubuntu4.1 failed to install/upgrade: ln: accessing `/etc/nologin': Input/output error

The only reference to /etc/nologin in this maintainer script is:

if [ ! -L /etc/nologin ] && [ ! -e /etc/nologin ]
then
        rm -f /var/lib/initscripts/nologin
        ln -s /var/lib/initscripts/nologin /etc/nologin
fi

Please show the output of 'ls -l /etc/nologin' on the affected machine.
