As part of the shorewall package reorganization, the /etc/init.d/shorewall init script (and the symlinks to it) has moved from the shorewall-common package to the shorewall package. However, after the upgrade of shorewall-common (which has become a dummy package), and the installation of the new shorewall binary package, it is not possible to purge the shorewall-common package.
The error I get is this: Purging configuration files for shorewall-common ... update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/shorewall exists during rc.d purge (use -f to force) dpkg: error processing shorewall-common (--remove): Is there some magic I can put into a prerm/postrm script that will handle that?
