It looks like this problem is happening because the ntop binary was
never started before the package was removed.
In fact no log file was created in /var/log/ntop and the directory was
deleted upon package removal.

I think this is a logrotate bug, as "okmissing" is specified in the
logrotate configuration. In fact there is an open bug [1] about that, as
other packages are affected by the same issue.

Nevertheless, there is an easy workaround, i.e. touching
/var/log/ntop/access.log in the postinst, so the directory never gets
deleted on package removal.

Thanks for the report,
Cheers,
Ludovico
