I've created *.deb package with a postinst script. On some hosts it works with errors:
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Is there a place where these errors are logged so I can have more detailed info (line # and error message, for instance) in order to troubleshoot postinst script?
My script has set -e, so the error can be anywhere, and the code tells me nothing.
Thanks in advance.

dpkg can't tell where your script failed -- it's not omniscient. Your script returned 1, that's all dpkg knows. The easiest way to debug this is to
set -xin the script and have all the debugging output dumped that you could possibly wish for.
