Well, they use an older script with new packages, and this makes dpkg
unhappy. Although the script aborts with an error message, people keep
thinking the install is complete and reboot.

But touch /servers/exec is only exececuted if dpkg-cross run succesfully
with all packages, so they don't have a working system.

I made the error message more clear in the latest version of the script.

Thanks,
