The postinst is failing.  Do you use udev?

If not then I guess there is a bug in the postinst.  I attach
a modified postinst.  Please save it in some directory then cd to
that directory and do (as root):

    ./thinkpad-base.postinst configure

Hopefully it will work.  If it doesn't, maybe you will have some
idea of what is going wrong?
