Package: turck-mmcache
Version: 2.4.6-12

When upgrading the turck-mmcache package, the process stops when trying to remove a lot of files in the /var/cache/turck-mmcache directory.

$ sudo apt-get upgrade
Setting up turck-mmcache (2.4.6-12) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/turck-mmcache.postinst: /bin/rm: Argument list too long
dpkg: error processing turck-mmcache (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 turck-mmcache
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

$ ls -l /var/cache/turck-mmcache/ |wc -l
12424

The problem comes on line 197 in the file /var/lib/dpkg/info/turck-mmcache.postinst :

rm -f /var/cache/turck-mmcache/*

Using the following command instead resolves the problem :

find /var/cache/turck-mmcache/ -type f -name mmcache*.* -exec rm {} \;

I'm using Debian GNU/Linux 3.0, whith a 2.4.27 kernel, libc version 2.3.2.ds1-20 and coreutils version 5.2.1-2.
