Thank you. I can confirm the bug. But I'm wondering what triggered this bug.
dpkg complains of the preinst script, which according to documentation should
only have been triggered during an install or upgrade operation.



rrs@learner:~$ sudo dpkg --purge kpartx
(Reading database ... 416244 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing kpartx (0.5.0+git1.656f8865-8) ...
preinst called with unknown argument `remove'
dpkg: error processing package kpartx (--purge):
