Please debian-dpkg@ is not the list for such discussions. Continue on
debian-user@l.d.o or debian-devel@l.d.o.

(That said your problem is possibly related to the fact that you're trying
to run debconf twice, once in the normal postint and once in the postinst
of the apt-get invocation in the chroot)
