But still, the second and following lines of update-grub's output end
up being piped to debconf, which doesn't appreciate that:

5923  write(1, "Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.14.3-scyw00225\n", 47 
<unfinished ...>
5914  <... read resumed> "Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.14.3-scyw00225\n", 
4096) = 47
5914  write(7, "20 Unsupported command \"found\" (full line was \"Found kernel: 
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.14.3-scyw00225\") received from confmodule.\n", 122) = 122

(this is an excerpt from stracing the postinst script).

Is there a way to set the $DEBUG variable to the postinst script from
the outside without having to modify the script?

Greetings
Marc
