Fun.

Steps to reproduce:

debootstrap sarge .
chroot .
apt-get install amavisd-new
sed -i s/sarge/testing/g /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get install amavisd-new
(This actually fails, deliberately I guess, in a fresh chroot, but didn't
happen on my "working" chroot)

Well, now I get
 subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 20

Is that defined?  Where are you getting these definitions from?

Installing from testing directly (without upgrading) works, but purge still
fails (128).
