Actually, I:
(1) started to file bugs for all piuparts failures. That's when I filed
  this bug.
(2) decided that it was really too much work, and changed my environment
to detect failures that happen even when important & required packages
are not removed (systraq doesn't fail in this case)
(3) reported the failures found in (2)
(4) mailed d-qa@ and d-release@ with a list of packages that fail due to
problems with important/required packages.

In ntp.postrm, the call to deluser is protected like this:
        deluser --system --quiet ntp || true 
ntp-simple doesn't have a postrm.

openssh-server brings very bad news. piuparts reports a problem with
broken symlinks after the installation (which went fine), and then
exists. I ignore broken symlinks problems. But the problem is that it
doesn't test removal/purge. So it means that I still have a lot of
packages to test, with a lot of potential RC bugs. Arg!

Thank you for pointing this.
