If you happen to have a file called "postinst" or "$packagename.postinst" in your debian directory, and you use dh_installdeb, it will definitely be installed on the user's system. Please find out where. The same holds for config, preinst etc. If they weren't installed, they'd be pretty useless, except for some special files in control.tar.gz[1] that dpkg uses directly.
