[Bug 1100449] [NEW] postinst outputs errors if dpkg-dev is not installed

 

Public bug reported:

If dpkg-dev is not installed, then errors are produced, despite the
script running successfully.

redirecting stderr should fix it:

if (type dpkg-vendor >/dev/null); then echo y;fi
bash: type: dpkg-vendor: not found
