Hmm, I don't really see how this bug "has a major effect on the
usability of [the] package".  I'm not going to fight over it, but
artificially inflating the severity rarely gets a bug fixed any
quicker.

The problem seems to be that xapian-omega.prerm contains:

    if [ "$1" = purge ] ; then
      rm -rf /var/lib/xapian-omega/templates
    fi
  
But it's postrm that gets called with purge according to the developers
reference, not prerm.

Cheers,
    Olly
