I'm having numerous problems installing the -proposed package on Lucid.
Sometimes the upgrade succeeds, sometimes it fails. I haven't been able to figure out why yet (I think I'm starting from the same state each time, but maybe there's a file somewhere I'm not considering).
If the package upgrade WORKS:
1) I get the following output:

2) There are several upstart jobs installed in /etc/init: start-ypbind.conf, yppasswd.conf, ypserv.conf, ypxferd.conf
3) Reverting the package to the older version leaves behind the /etc/init/*yp*.conf scripts behind
If the package upgrade FAILS:
1) I get the following output:

2) Only one upstart jobs is installed in /etc/init: ypbind.conf
3) When I tell aptitude to revert back to the older NIS package, it leaves /etc/init/ypbind.conf behind
In BOTH cases, after a server reboot, NIS doesn't come up correctly.
I was able to get it working by installing (so it fails) moving the ypbind.conf file to /tmp, reverting/installing again (so it succeeds) and then moving ypbind.conf back to /etc/init. Then after a reboot it worked.
