Hmm, I just ran into something similar:
dpkg -i some.deb - can't configure due to missing depedencies - postinst is not run -> the debconf templates are not registered dpkg -r some - postrm calls db_get but the template does not exist, so script fails with error 10, package is not removed so we really should test unpack-remove-purge what is the correct solution for the maintainer script anyway? db_get || true <== may hide some other errors Andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
