It's an Emdebian-specific problem, commonly dash because it's one of
the first preinst scripts run (if not the first).

Normally, in Debian, this won't happen because dash contains files
in /usr/share/man/man1 but these files are removed for Emdebian.

What I'm considering is that the existing grip-config package used in
Emdebian gets introduced into Debian and provides a udeb to create this
directory. It does seem like overkill though. (Currently, grip-config
just provides a few optimised tasksel tasks which take the reduced
package set of Emdebian Grip into account).
