I also discovered that if you're doing this in a chroot, even if /proc is mounted, things break -- because the /proc/self/exe symlink is "unchrooted". For example, if the chroot is at /c then it points to /c/bin/foo instead of /bin/foo. The java postinst(s) rely on /proc/self/exe to locate... something (parts of themselves, perhaps). I worked around it by creating a symlink /c/c -> /, so that within the chroot both /bin/foo and /c/bin/foo resolve to /bin/foo. (Actually, because my chroots are unionfs'ed, I apparently have to make symlinks for all three "arms" of the unionfs: the ro dir, the cow dir, and the mountpoint. Go figure.)
