Using the current image from https://raspi.debian.net/, install of argon1_0.2.1_all.deb fails:

Setting /usr/bin/argonone-shutdown to suid argonone
Adding user argonone to gpio and i2c groups
usermod: group 'gpio' does not exist
dpkg: error processing package argon1 (--install):
installed argon1 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 6

After adding gpio goup (i2c was there), post-install is happy.

P.S. Putting this in a Debian package is the right thing to do. Thank you!

Check for smbus loading issues

If the i2c kernel modules are not loaded or the user does not have the correct permissions the smbus.SMBus() call will fail. Wrap the call in try/except to catch this.

Fixes: spapadim#4
