Bug Description
[SRU Justification]
Package fails to install/upgrade on certain environments where it previously could be installed.
[Test Case]
On an Ubuntu instance running on KVM on POWER:
1. install lsvpd
2. observe that the package fails to install with a postinst error
3. update apt sources to point at -proposed
4. install the new package
5. observe that the package installs successfully
[Regression potential]
None apparent; the update fixes the return code of tools which were previously installable on KVM guests even if they are not useful there.

lsvpd: Fix return code issue
Below error was encountered while upgrading Ubuntu:
Setting up lsvpd (1.7.5-
vpdupdate is not supported on the PowerKVM pSeries Guest
dpkg: error processing package lsvpd (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of ppc64-diag:
ppc64-diag depends on lsvpd; however:
Package lsvpd is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing package ppc64-diag (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
lsvpd
ppc64-diag
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
This patch fixes above configuration/
exit status (1) only when error is encountered while unpacking.
This will allow Ubuntu to continue unpacking/
packages instead of halting the whole upgrading process.
Kindly note: The patch applies clean over lsvpd 1.7.5-0ubuntu2
