Hi!

problem was the script postinst inside den package. There was a line:

  update-rc.d cron multiuser 89 11 >/dev/null

The syntax for update-rc.d is not correct so that you get the
errormessage.

Fast solution (dangerous if you do a typo!):

  mv /usr/sbin/update-rc.d /usr/sbin/update-rc.d-ok
  echo "update-rc.d cron defaults" >/usr/sbin/update-rc.d
  chmod 755 /usr/sbin/update-rc.d
  apt-get install cron
  mv /usr/sbin/update-rc.d-ok /usr/sbin/update-rc.d

Best solution:

  Packagemaintainer put a new script inside

After the fast solution you will be able to upgrade again ;)

CU,
  Kai.
