I've tried dpkg -r and dpkg -P but the problem is still there. *For the dpkg -r : http://snurf.info/sfantar/debian/bugs/mailscanner/dpkg-r.txt *For the dpkg -P : http://snurf.info/sfantar/debian/bugs/mailscanner/dpkg-P.txt And the status of the "mailscanner" package : http://snurf.info/sfantar/debian/bugs/mailscanner/dpkg-l.txt "Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal.". So, of course, I can't reinstall[1].
