Title:
  scary failure warning on upgrade from Maverick

Status in eglibc package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  During an upgrade from Maverick to Natty, I got the attached scary-
  looking dialog from libc6 warning me about failure to restart
  services:

  "Failure restarting some services for GNU libc upgrade
  The following services could not be restarted for the GNU libc library upgrade:

  atd cron cups

  You will need to start these manually by running
  '/etc/init.d/<service> start'."

  Can we suppress this dialog (I have seen it on previous upgrades, e.g.
  Karmic-->Lucid)? I think it detracts from the upgrade experience and
  offers limited value to most end users.  I suspect end users will not
  understand whether this particular error is serious or not; it uses
  the words 'failure' and the dialog comes with a big 'warning' icon.
  Furthermore I suspect many would not know how to run
  '/etc/init.d/<service> start'.

  Fixing the underlying problems that prevent the services from
  restarting would be fine, assuming this makes the dialog go away.
