Followup-For: Bug #378280


When trying to remove apache2, I got this error and dpkg won't continue:

* Stopping web server (apache2)...                                              
    ... failed!
You may still have some apache2 processes running.  There are
processes named 'apache2' which do not match your pid file,
and in the name of safety, we've left them alone.  Please review
the situation by hand.

      [fail]
invoke-rc.d: initscript apache2, action "stop" failed.
If I check what is going on:

$ ps aux|grep apache2
root 4888 12.8 12.2 131936 126684 pts/2 T+ 18:56 0:03 /usr/bin/dpkg --status-fd 41 --force-depends --force-remove-essential --purge apache2-mpm-prefork leiota 4941 0.0 0.0 4040 744 pts/1 R+ 18:56 0:00 grep apache2

Well I just imagine that invoke-rc.d believes that dpkg process is actually apache2
and breaks on that.
I haven't found a workaround so that I cannot uninstall any daemon program.
