 Edit: locsmif has found the cause for this today
Fix is quite simple:
[ -L /etc/rcS.d/S04udev ] && mv /etc/rcS.d/S04udev /etc/rcS.d/S03udev
then take initscripts off hold with:
echo initscripts install|dpkg --set-selections
and:
apt-get update && apt-get install initscripts
The error only shows in EASTER and CEBIT
Older installs may after today's dist-upgrade not be able to open a konsole running under X.
If this occurs, please go to a textconsole (Ctl - Alt - F1) and enter:
apt-get install initscripts/testing
if asked: edit rc-local: Y or N , choose N or Enter.
Reboot after this.
Then: echo initscripts hold|dpkg --set-selections to put it on hold.
As soon as there is notice of a fix here, please unhold again.

EDIT: With next Dist-Upgrade we will have OpenOffice 2.0.4-rc3-1.
That Version will be fully functional again.
Had there been some problems with installing OOO these days, todays d-u will wreck the whole package to unusability.
The version from testing works though. First you have to de-install all of the old packages with: apt-get remove openoffice.org openoffice.org-kde openoffice.org-l10n-en openoffice.org-help-en Then please check with: dpkg -l | grep openoffice for leftovers, and delete these by hand. the version from testing can then be installed with: apt-get -t testing install openoffice.org openoffice.org-kde openoffice.org-l10n-en openoffice.org-help-en You have to change -en to -us or whatever you need.
An alternative would be, to use the klik package that probono was friendly enough to build at:http://klik.atekon.de/cmg/openoffice_2.0.4rc3060927de.cmg
With new initscripts package, when asked what to do with the config file, please answer Y, not ENTER or N, as usual.
If you already answered N or ENTER, this line will fix it afterwards:
apt-get install --yes --reinstall -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confmiss -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confnew initscripts

A small problem may occur in dist-upgrade today.
To prevent it:
apt-get remove --purge kanotix-graphics
before dist-upgrade, then:
apt-get install kanotix-graphics
after d-u is finished.
If it occurs during d-u:
apt-get -f install
and, if necessary, the above steps as well.
Installations older than Easter/VDR will need a grub update:
grub-install --no-floppy "(hd0)"
If that gives an error, please repeat.
To activate all changes:
wget -qO- http://kanotix.com/files/fix-kanotix-graphics.sh|sh
|
Edit: dist-upgrade is safe again.
Problem has been solved.
with todays dist-upgrade udev gets updated to 0.100-1
That will lead to a complete failure of udev after reboot on some boxes.
Source: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=386500
A working fix is:
update-rc.d -f udev start 03 S .
update-rc.d -f udev-mtab start 36 S .
(just don't forget the dots at the end)
