Hi

>when uninstalling (purging) the package, I got the following error message:

That is strange indeed. Checks are in place:
        if command -v dictdconfig # update dictd's DB
        then
            dictdconfig -w
        fi
        if dpkg -s dictd 2> /dev/null|grep -qe '^Status:.*installed'
        then
            invoke-rc.d dictd stop
            invoke-rc.d dictd start
        fi

What is the output of
    dpkg -s dictd 2> /dev/null|grep -qe '^Status:.*installed'

and return code?

Cheers
Sebastian
