Package: cpufreqd Severity: normal Hi,
This is easy to replicate. 1. aptitude install cpufreqd 2. aptitude (remove|purge) cpufreqd Be greeted by: Removing cpufreqd ... * Stopping CPU Frequency daemon cpufreqd * /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d: line 446: 12072 Terminated * "${INITDPREFIX}${INITSCRIPTID}" "${saction}" "$@" invoke-rc.d: initscript cpufreqd, action "stop" failed. dpkg: error processing cpufreqd (--purge): subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 143 I don't know if it works with apt-get, but I suspect not. Workaround is to /etc/init.d/cpufreqd stop, before removing the package. This is with 2.3.3-1 in Lenny as of today.
