[Pkg-rust-maintainers] Bug#1069686: libsequoia-octopus-librnp: postinst script Syntax error: "fi" unexpected

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor]

Package: libsequoia-octopus-librnp
Version: 1.8.1-3
Severity: grave
X-Debbugs-Cc: Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg at fifthhorseman.net>

Trying to install libsequoia-octopus-librnp:

/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: 12: Syntax error: "fi" unexpected (expecting "then")
dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-aFNmwO/1-libsequoia-octopus-librnp_1.8.1-3_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 new libsequoia-octopus-librnp package pre-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 2

Please try at least installing and uninstalling the package before
pushing it into unstable!

This also makes me wonder whether we should be doing anything in an
autopkgtest kind of way for this package.  It'd be great to get some
more automated confirmation that the things are working as expected
before we inflict them on the rest of the debian ecosystem :P
