 Well, an error message echoed on the console would be great, but if you
 don't mind me filing bugs from time to time... ;)

should be in next upload. committed to bzr:

 thanks for the report... we've been here before. :)
 
 this seems to be a repeat of:
 
   http://bugs.debian.org/398630
 
 essentially, ltsp-client-core shouldn't be installed on a normal system, and
 checks for the presence of /etc/ltsp_chroot, and errors out if it doesn't find
 it (which is created by ltsp-build-client).
 
 it does issue an error through debconf at priority critical, though the
 noninteractive debconf frontend still seems to silently discard error messages
 (or email when possible, but in this case, a chroot, it's often not possible):

It is reproducible by installing your package in a clean chroot, using
the debconf Noninteractive frontend, and priority: critical.

This test was carried out using about 50 AMD64 nodes of the Grid'5000
platform.  Internet was not accessible from the nodes.
