Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
The error is in the package post-installation script
/var/lib/dpkg/info.slpd.postinst
line 9: update-rc.d slpd remove
All that is needed is the addtion of "-f" as in
update-rc.d -f slpd remove
Is the addition of a "-f" too arduous for the maintainer of this package to do
in nearly 18 months since this bug was first reported?
