Package: hplip Version: 0.9.7-4 Followup-For: Bug #354600 After hp-probe failed to do anything with my parallel port (inrecognized uri parallel:/dev/lp0), and since reports suggested status reporting with the HP350 was not really supported, I decided to remove hplip.
I'm getting the same error messages mentioned by the previous reporter. Adding the -x the the postrm script, I'm getting: Removing hplip ... Purging configuration files for hplip ... + set -e + case "$1" in + kill_python_crappage + '[' -d /usr/lib/hplip ']' + : + for i in /var/run/hplip + dpkg-statoverride --remove /var/run/hplip No override present. + true + getent passwd hplip + deluser --quiet --system hplip Undefined argument in option spec dpkg: error processing hplip (--purge): subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 255 Errors were encountered while processing: hplip My system is in various stages between stable and experimental, depending on the components I needed. I'm available for any other info/testing.
