[Bug 1990638] Re: package libdebuginfod-common 0.187-3 failed to install/upgrade: installed libdebuginfod-common package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1

[Erich Eickmeyer ]

This appears to be going on under the hood, affected two kinetic
installs for me:

Setting up libdebuginfod-common (0.187-3) ...
Not replacing deleted config file /etc/profile.d/debuginfod.sh
chmod: cannot access '/etc/profile.d/debuginfod.sh': No such file or directory

I suspect a broken debian/postinst
