Package: tp-smapi-dkms
Version: 0.40-6
Severity: serious

On my system, the tp-smapi-dkms package fails to install with this error
message:

,----
| $ sudo dpkg --configure -a
| Setting up tp-smapi-dkms (0.40-6) ...

| Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 2.6.31-1-686 cannot be found at

| You can use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located, or

I just reproduced by purging and reinstalling the package.

dkms is complaining about the correct thing -- the kernel headers aren't
installed on the system. But this should not make the postinst script
fail.
