Hi,
The logic in initscripts postinst is indeed a bit broken, Serge has been
looking at fixing it, not sure how far he got.
In the mean time, you should be able to workaround it by essentially
doing initscripts' job for it:
- rmdir /dev/shm
- ln -s /run/shm /dev/shm
Then run the upgrade and it should succeed.
