Please try running the postinstall scripts yourself and report back if
they produce any error messages. You can do this from a bash shell
(e.g., in mintty) with the following command:

% bash --norc --noprofile /etc/postinstall/inetutils.sh
% bash --norc --noprofile /etc/postinstall/libsasl2_3.sh

I'm the libsasl2 maintainer some I'm especially interested in any error
messages that postinstall script produces.

(Note that if the scripts have run successfully since you got the error
message, they will be renamed to have a .done extension. You can still
run the libsasl2_3 script, though -- just add the appropriate .done
extension to the command.)
