Thank you for your bug report.

Do you mean apt install-ing the package from a live system ?

Actually I've changed the code from Jessie's version in order to fail in case 
of error following this :
https://lists.debian.org/debian-desktop/2016/11/msg00060.html

I've copied KiBi who participated in the discussion.

Now what ?
Is the proposed patch deemed suitable wrt. policy, by not failing in case of 
error but still printing a message ?

I'd say it's not much different than the previous "|| true" because I expect 
update-grub/initramfs already produce relevant messages when they fail.


Cheers,
