Title:
  purging configuration files does not do its job

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

  I just installed the package on a kubuntu 6.06 machine, with sudo
  aptitude install mozilla-thunderbird.

  Executed the application ONCE, and then purged it with sudo aptitude
  purge mozilla-thunderbird.

  The result:

  Purging configuration files for mozilla-thunderbird ...
  rmdir: /usr/lib/mozilla-thunderbird/chrome/: No such file or directory
  rmdir: /usr/lib/mozilla-thunderbird/chrome/: No such file or directory
  dpkg - warning: while removing mozilla-thunderbird, directory 
`/etc/mozilla-thunderbird` not empty so not removed.

  So the said directory is left there, with the file auto-config.js in
  it.

  Hence. purge does not properly purge the package.
