That looks like both a local configuration problem (hostname --short seems to return an error), and a bug in netatalk's init script (it shouldn't care about hostname in the 'stop' case). Did you have an issue with the upgrade itself? If not, I think this report should be reassigned to the netatalk package. Cheers, Julien
