Public bug reported:

1)
Description:    Ubuntu Vivid Vervet (development branch)
Release:        15.04

2)
upstart:
  Installed: 1.13.2-0ubuntu9
  Candidate: 1.13.2-0ubuntu10
  Version table:
     1.13.2-0ubuntu10 0
        500 http://mirror.cloud.online.net/ubuntu-ports/ vivid/main armhf Packages
 *** 1.13.2-0ubuntu9 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What you expected to happen
System continues to run normally with critical system files (listed below) intact.

4) What happened instead
The following critical system files are all missing after updating the upstart package using apt-get:
/sbin/halt
/sbin/init
/sbin/poweroff
/sbin/reboot
/sbin/runlevel
/sbin/shutdown
/sbin/telinit

This is a serious bug which could prevent rebooting/shutdown of the OS
and completely disable it due to missing /sbin/init.
