This probably ought to be assigned to dhelp; I still don't see what's
going on, since dhelp has /var/lib/dhelp/tmp in data.tar.gz and it ought
to get the sucker created on install.  OTOH, something fishy is going
on, since dhelp.postinst contains
# create /var/lib/dhelp if necessary
if [ ! -d /var/lib/dhelp ]; then
    mkdir /var/lib/dhelp
fi
which is bloody odd - we have /var/lib/dhelp in data.tar.gz as well, so
this code should never trigger...
