Yes. The problem is that the Debian policy specifies other targets in the maintainer script. Normally, most people don't implement them and do a 'abort-upgrade|bla|baz) #do nothing'. You don't do so, your maintainer scripts simply FAIL when they're called with another argument than postinst. That shouldn't happen if the actions did not fail.
