Working with Damián "des" Viano (a DD) on IRC ( #lugfi irc.freenode.net ), we 
changed teh first line of /var/lib/dpkg/info/tzdata.postinst  to 
#! /bin/sh -x . Then , I runned dpkg --configure tzdata. The output is here:

As I could read from the script, doung your solution would end the script 
promptly, tell me if that is what you want (I mean, I do not care if I can 
not upgrade for some days if we can find a solution for this bug)

Regards, Damian.-

precisely the same reasons.
