KILLed rsyslog but it doesn't make any difference.

Tried purging rsyslog but that just tries stopping again. Once KILLed it
tries starting it again, which makes no sense at all seen as I'm trying
to purge it.

I have tried removing /etc/init.d/rsyslog so that invoke-rc.d does
nothing but it still gets stuck on "start rsyslog".

rsyslog is thoroughly broken on this server.

Title:
  Upgrade to 7.4.4-1ubuntu2.5 hangs

Status in rsyslog package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I've just ran an update+dist-upgrade which pulled 7.4.4-1ubuntu2.5.
  It's sat there doing nothing. CTRL+C won't kill it. Htop shows that
  the last process to be created is "stop rsyslog" which follows
  "invoke-rc.d rsyslog restart".

  dpkg.log:

  I have KILLed "stop rsyslog" which then moves on to "start rsyslog"
  which I have also had to KILL.
