The same thing happened to me with postfix about two months ago.  Since
then, postfix has been updating with no problems.  I agree that it's odd
too.  I could not find a cause for the error.  I finally did an
'update-alternatives --remove sendmail' and then ran the postinstall
script from the commandline.  It hasn't hiccupped since.
