Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: hotkey-setup

1)
sc...@scott-d630:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu jaunty (development branch)
Release:        9.04
2)
sc...@scott-d630:~$ apt-cache policy hotkey-setup
hotkey-setup:
  Installed: 0.1-23ubuntu10
  Candidate: 0.1-23ubuntu10
  Version table:
 *** 0.1-23ubuntu10 0

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

After running apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, this failed to restart. I 
could not uninstall it due to  the error in the init script. I set the script 
to exit with 0 to uninstall it, after verifying that nothing was still running 
from the script. I was then able to remove it with apt-get remove hotkey-setup 
--purge. I then attempted to reinstall it, which I expected would hopefully 
work. No joy.
