I got the cygutils postinstall error also, caused by missing dependencies.

$ cat /etc/postinstall/cygutils.sh
/usr/bin/update-desktop-database
/usr/bin/update-mime-database /usr/share/mime

both scripts do not exist, and are no cygutils reqs.
please test against it.
like:
test -f /usr/bin/update-desktop-database && /usr/bin/update-desktop-database
test -f /usr/bin/update-mime-database && /usr/bin/update-mime-database
/usr/share/mime
