Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: drupal

When installing drupal-5.1 on feisty I get this:
-----8<-----
dpkg: error processing drupal-5.1 (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 drupal-5.1
-----8<-----

Poking a -x in drupal-5.1.postinst I see that it's the following that fails:
-----8<-----
curl http://localhost/drupal/install.php?profile=default 2> /dev/null | grep 
"Drupal installation complete" > /dev/null || exit 1
-----8<-----

This can fail because:
- That page says "Drupal already installed" when already configured and 
installed
- If you don't want help from the dbconfig-thingie, you won't have a complete 
install until you have configured the DB.
- There's no guarantee thats the location of the VHost using drupal.

I suggest that this test is refined, and that the only effect of failing
it is popping up a warning saying that manual configuration is needed.
Failing hard without an explanation like now is definately wrong in any
case.
