I have tracked the problem down to an unrelated mounted read-only dir that I had within /var/lib/eucalyptus tree for which root did not have permissions to chown -R as per line 44 of the postinst srcipt. This caused the script to fail. I guess it can therefore be considered self-inflicted.
Having said that it does show there is a minor problem within the upstart script called from the postinst script returning the message
start: Unknown parameter: IFACE
The line that generates this appears to be line 8 of the upstart job
/etc/init/eucalyptus-network.conf
which has the string
instance $IFACE
I havent investigated what this does yet.
This doesnt stop the postinst script completing with an exit code of 0
