When a package isn't able to be configured due to a missing/broken facility on the system, it is acceptable to fail in the postinst rather than complete the installation and give the user the false impression that the package is working correctly. So this bug is at least not 'serious', though I'll let the maintainer decide whether a further fix is warranted.
