One thing I just notice is that the server version of 10.04.4 LTS ISO installs update-motd package by default while the desktop 10.04.4 LTS ISO does not install that for you.
But it's still a bug in the initscripts package, it just requires other packages or the
sysvinit-2.87dsf/debian/initscripts.postinst
script will not have the contents of the packages that it damages installed.
If you are a desktop ubuntu user In order to experience this bug try installing a server ISO in a VM guest.
