I agree that it would be better if it didn't fail. The only option I can think of is not letting the prerm fail using || exit 0 or something. Anyway, since we shortly will only have 1 binary package using the init script, this should mostly solve itself, but I have the feeling the postrm will fail or something in case it's an upgrade from an older version.
