Yes, that is the case ... I cannot find the proplematic template
in the debconf database.

I see ... reading debconf-devel I see
Note that if your package's sole use of debconf is in the postrm,
you should make your package's postinst source /usr/share/debâ
conf/confmodule, to give debconf a chance to load up your templates
file into its database. Then the templates will be available when
your package is being purged.
which hints at this problem ... trying now ...
Big thanks for your hints!!!
Best wishes
Norbert
