Thank you very much for helping me with this issue. I inherited original
preinst code from previous maintainer and I've never hand a chance to
investigate how it works...

I tried your diff but it failed on upgrade as follows:

    /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: 11: /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: Bad 
substitution

Besides I think in this case I'd prefer to upload any changes to "preinst"
to "experimental". At least I need more time to scratch my head over this
code and to test it...
