Hi Jason, As a temporary workaround, edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/argus-server.postrm and comment out everything from the first case statement to the esac statement (so the script should only have the initial shebang line and the stuff that is automatically added by dh_installdebconf) Then try to purge the package again. I'll upload a new version with a fixed postrm shortly. regards Andrew -- linux.conf.au 2005 - http://linux.conf.au/ - Birthplace of Tux April 18th to 23rd - http://linux.conf.au/ - LINUX Canberra, Australia - http://linux.conf.au/ - Get bitten! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
