The problem is in postinsts, trying to look at the file type with -d, but this follows the symlink (as explained in the man). So, you'd better use -L and invert the logic.
I'm not bumping the severity, as the upgrade finishes properly (from a dpkg point of view at least), and the game still works nicely (affects only documentation).
