  So, what is in /etc/postinstall?  Is there an "update-info-dir.sh.done"?
What happens earlier in the setup.log, at the point where it should be
untarring the "_update-info-dir" package?  Did it fail to create the script
there?  Or has it somehow ended up in the wrong directory somewhere?

    cheers,
