Cannot upgrade from 2.9.2 to 2.9.4 due to an error on '/etc/logrotate.d/rudder'

Description
I tried upgrading a Rudder server (debian squeeze) from 2.9.2 to 2.9.4 but at the end (seems rudder-server-root postinst)
I get that error (sorry about the french in error ...) :
Paramétrage de rudder-server-root (2.9.4-squeeze0) ...
Installation de la nouvelle version du fichier de configuration /etc/init.d/rudder-server-root ...
Preserving user changes to /etc/logrotate.d/rudder (renamed from /etc/logrotate.d/rudder-server-root)...
mv: impossible d'évaluer « /etc/logrotate.d/rudder »: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type
dpkg : erreur de traitement de rudder-server-root (--configure) :
le sous-processus script post-installation installé a retourné une erreur de sortie d'état 1
configured to not write apport reports
Des erreurs ont été rencontrées pendant l'exécution :
rudder-server-root
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Saying that '/etc/logrotate.d/rudder' is missing, but this file is actually present ...
The server seems to work fine but the installation is not complete...

This is a bit of a weird one. We use the "dpkg-maintscript-helper mv_conffile" helper to move the old config file (/etc/logrotate.d/rudder-server-root) to it's new name (/etc/logrotate.d/rudder). However, this helper tries to mv the new file to /etc/logrotate.d/rudder.dpkg-new, without checking if it exists. This seems weird to me, and at least some other people, as shown in https://code.launchpad.net/~neil-aldur/ubuntu/precise/iptables-persistent/fix-for-967018-905517/+merge/100652.
However, the workaround is simple: we touch the new file if it doesn't exist, so that "dpkg-maintscript-helper mv_conffile" always succeeds.
