Well, I have no idea what is the breakage on Ubuntu here, but on Debian
it does work.

And, the warning is just rubbish, we *are* running from a maintainer
script. No idea what has been changed in the enviromental variables but
I guess that is a bug in dpkg-trigger that does not recognize that it is
running from a maintainer script.

Best wishes
