Thanks, Danilo.

Interesting issue. I was able to reproduce it locally and then confirm that your package fixes it.

My main concern was that sometimes we do things in postinst that depend on the package being installed, which means that we aren't able to simply rename the script to preinst and be done with it. But this doesn't seem to be the case.

I'm going ahead and uploading it now. Let's see what the archive admins will say.

+  * Rename usbmuxd.postinst to usbmuxd.preinst (LP: #2034539)
+    - Due to an issue with Netplan (LP#1999178), upgrades from Lunar to Mantic
+      are suffering from long pauses. One of the observed causes is the fact
+      that usbmuxd will install a udev rules file referring to a user that
+      will only be created later in the upgrade process. While we work on the
+      proper fix, turning the postinst script that created the user to a
+      preinst will help working around this issue.
