Unfortunately, piuparts logs are almost unreadable, containing a bunch of
debugging information that isn't very useful and not containing the key
information that would be useful, which is largely why I don't try to use
it.  I tried for a while and gave up because of that problem.  I know
people are actively working on it; hopefully it will get better.

This is a directory shipped with the package, so it will be automatically
removed when it's empty:

windlord:~/tmp> dpkg -c openafs-fileserver_1.4.5.dfsg1-1_i386.deb | grep /etc
drwxr-xr-x root/root         0 2007-11-11 16:23 ./etc/
drwxr-xr-x root/root         0 2007-11-11 16:23 ./etc/openafs/
drwx------ root/root         0 2007-11-11 16:23 ./etc/openafs/server/
drwxr-xr-x root/root         0 2007-11-11 16:23 ./etc/init.d/
-rwxr-xr-x root/root      3329 2007-11-11 16:14 ./etc/init.d/openafs-fileserver

This therefore isn't the real problem.

What file is left behind in /etc/openafs on your system that's preventing
it from being removed?  I'm happy to fix this if I know what file is
keeping it from being removed, but just removing /etc/openafs isn't a
valid solution.  It's not clear from this bug report whether the problem
is even with openafs-fileserver or with openafs-client.

(I'll try to take a look at this myself if you don't have this information
available, but this is the sort of information that piuparts really should
be providing for it to be useful.)
