Problem solved. Turns out that because of a misconfigured debconf database this
system was missing the libraries/restart-without-asking entry - which would
crash the libssl1.0.0 postinst script.

In order to fix it, you can do something like put the following into your
debconf database (often found at /var/cache/debconf/config.dat):

Name: libraries/restart-without-asking
Template: libraries/restart-without-asking
Value: true
Owners: libssl1.0.0
Flags: seen

note: "Value: true" means to restart services without asking - this is potentially unsafe.
