Package: element-desktop Version: 1.7.18 Severity: normal Setting up element-desktop (1.7.18) ... /var/lib/dpkg/info/element-desktop.postinst: line 10: update-desktop-database: command not found
I got the above when I upgraded this package. Reading the postinst script you have || true after the command so you obviously planned for the case of it not existing. Why not do something like the following?
