Do you have mod_cache_disk enabled? If not then htcacheclean being started
would be a bug in apache2's upgrade logic.

It's not clear what the best behavior is, here. The dir needs to be configured
in apache's config, too, and the dir missing could point to a mis-configuration.
In that case, aborting with an error is very useful.
