It looks like unstable has the same code in the maintainer scripts and I
can't duplicate this either.

windlord:~/tmp> \lintian luatex_0.28.0-2_i386.deb 
W: luatex: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/pdfluatex
W: luatex: postinst-has-useless-call-to-install-docs
W: luatex: prerm-has-useless-call-to-install-docs
W: luatex: unusual-interpreter ./usr/bin/texdoclua #!texlua
W: luatex: maintainer-script-ignores-errors preinst

Oh, wait.  I know what's wrong.  Ugh.  The current code depends on the
order in which the maintainer scripts are seen.  I'll try to get this
fixed ASAP (but probably not before this evening my time).
