It turns out that the problem isn't caused by the postinst script. I tried stripping out portions of it piece by piece (starting with the conffile handling/dpkg-maintscript-helper snippets), but nothing helped. Then I took a look at what should've appeared right afterwards if dpkg didn't get "stuck" somehow: <snip> Setting up bumblebee (3.0.1-1) ... Adding members from group(s) 'adm sudo admin' to 'bumblebee': update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated) [ ok ] Starting Bumblebee daemon: bumblebeed. Ah, bumblebee's init script... A 3-way comparison later between the distro-agnostic init script provided upstream, the one provided by suwako.nomanga.net, and the one currently in the pkg-nvidia git repo (presumably taken from a dh-make template?), and it turns out that this is what was missing: -DAEMON_ARGS="--use-syslog" +DAEMON_ARGS="--daemon --use-syslog" And the package installs fine now. :) Aron, have you contacted upstream and asked to merge our work with their PPA packaging? I want to try to push as much of our work upstream to avoid duplicate work and potential oversights on our part...also, I suppose maybe some of their Ubuntu PPA packagers might be able to help with upstart. I'll go about preparing a merge request on Github if you aren't planning on doing so yourself. Now that bumblebee is taken care of, I've (finally) uploaded my primus packaging, to collab-maint for now (but am open to moving it into pkg-nvidia) [1].
