Replying to my own post. This is a reproducible problem/workaround
that has affected several packages in some of my various beowulf
deployments; these have included

    initramfs-tools
    initramfs-tools-core
    htcondor
    nginx-full
    printer-driver-cups-pdf


I am posting this for information: there is clearly something about the
preinst/prerm/postinst/postrm script(s) that is causing problems during
dpkg operation. The workaround is the same in each case: rename the
offending script and run dpkg again.

I recognise that this family of scripts are very similar, but lacking
the skills to pinpoint the problem, the best I can offer is to hand the
observation over to the list for any interested parties who would like
to take a look.

Best
