Removing crack ...
dpkg: warning: while removing crack, directory '/var/run/Crack' not empty so
not removed.
I think that section 6.8 of the debian policy[1] intends that /var/run/...
data should be removed at purge time, but I'm not clear that I'm reading the
right documents or that I'm reading them correctly, so if this bug is
clasified incorrectly, please accept my apologies!
Cheers & God bless
