Using 'dpkg-maintscript-helper supports rm_conffile' guards introduces
unreliability into upgrades; it means that the conffile is removed or
not depending on whether dpkg happens to be unpacked before
ttf-tiresias. This seems generally undesirable; it would be better to
enforce a single code path. (This is academic for Debian because the
version of dpkg in squeeze supported dpkg-maintscript-helper, hence
Severity: wishlist; Ubuntu's last LTS release didn't have a sufficient
version of dpkg for that which is why I care.)
It would be nice to just use dh_installdeb's support for generating
dpkg-maintscript-helper commands, which was introduced in debhelper
8.1.0. This would remove duplicate code from your maintainer scripts -
in fact, you'd no longer need to have handwritten maintainer scripts at
all. Here's a patch:
* Use maintscript support in dh_installdeb rather than writing out
dpkg-maintscript-helper commands by hand. We now simply Pre-Depend on a
new enough version of dpkg rather than using 'dpkg-maintscript-helper
supports' guards, leading to more predictable behaviour on upgrades.

"Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out
of the darkness. There had been need of rain for many days.
"Only a promise," Lao Er said.
