Okay, but why would /usr/share/doc/gaim not exist at all? That link is included in the gaim package.

If the directory /usr/share/doc/gaim does not exist, then
! -h /usr/share/doc/gaim
evaluates to TRUE (because /usr/share/doc/gaim isn't a link-- it has to exist to be a link), and therefore 'rmdir' is called. Problem is, rmdir will error out when you try to remove a non-existent directory, saying: rmdir: `/usr/share/doc/gaim`: No such file or directory
Because there was an error in postinst, dpkg stops, saying there was an error, and the user has to intervene to get the package to install.
