This does not cause the postinst to fail, does it? It's just a missing
redirection, the line is something like

LDAT=`kpsewhich language.dat` || LDAT=/etc/texmf/language.dat

and should be

LDAT=`kpsewhich language.dat 2>/dev/null` || LDAT=/etc/texmf/language.dat

No, it cannot and should not. That's why we use kpsewhich only if it is
there.
