Two bugs here:
1. printf to stdout is bad, it mucks with debconf and we die, changed to stderr.
2. If a postinst failed udpkg marks the package as half-configured. Without
this patch main-menu will then refuse to run the postinst again, because it only
cares about installed and unpacked packages. That's no fun b/c the module
failed, and I'd like to try again. Maybe it is udpkg's fault, but I think it's
main-menu's.
