I have been unable to reproduce this in my tests. I've been using software-center, since that uses aptdaemon. I tried installing kword; you said "the libc-bin postinst script caused an apparently abrupt end in the logging", but that's simply the last thing that runs in that installation (libc-bin ships the ldconfig trigger, run at the end of most installations that include libraries). I also tried installing a random small unimportant package (knews - not a KDE package, despite the name) that I knew to use debconf, in case that was the determining factor, but I couldn't make it fail regardless of the setting of debconf/priority.

Could you please give me some kind of specific test sequence that I can run to reproduce this bug?
