Hi,

Thank you for taking care of this issue. 
Did the sudo apt-get install --reinstall insserv sysv-rc. As there were many error messages before the two lines :

Setting up insserv (1.12.0-14ubuntu0.2) ...

Setting up sysv-rc (2.87dsf-4ubuntu17.5) ...

I tried an update with the Update manager that produced seamingly the
same errors as before. Tried a second time with sudo apt-get install
--reinstall insserv sysv-rc. The output in terminal below.

Is it right that insserv and sysv-rc to be reinstalled should come from
the lucid package ?

Best regards,
MF
