Package: dictionaries-common Version: 0.22.40sarge7 Severity: important Trying to remove wcatalan (I wonder how it got installed at all) I get the following error message:
# dpkg --remove wcatalan (Reading database ... 157936 files and directories currently installed.) Removing wcatalan ... Can't call method "choices" on an undefined value at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Question.pm line 85, <GEN0> line 4. dpkg: error processing wcatalan (--remove): subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 9 Errors were encountered while processing: wcatalan The message comes from remove-default-wordlist: # /usr/sbin/remove-default-wordlist wcatalan Can't call method "choices" on an undefined value at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Question.pm line 85, <GEN0> line 4. Looks like something is badly messed up on this machine. But I can't find out what. I would be grateful for any hint.
