After feeling the urgent need to free some space on my harddrive I
decided to uninstall some lesser used programs. Unfortunately this
also hit fvwm95. It did not work. Here is what happened:
$ LANG=C sudo apt-get remove fvwm95
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
fvwm95
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 0B of archives.
After unpacking 1489kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
(Reading database ... 331403 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing fvwm95 ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/fvwm95.postrm: line 16:
menu-method-file=/etc/menu-methods/fvwm95: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing fvwm95 (--remove):
subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
fvwm95
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I then looked at /var/lib/dpkg/info/fvwm95.postrm, line 16 and found
the culprit. To my knowledge `-' is not allowed in bourne shell
variable names. After changing every appearance of menu-method-file
to menu_method_file fvwm95 removes just fine:
$ LANG=C sudo apt-get remove fvwm95
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
fvwm95
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
