Package: fontconfig Version: 2.6.0-4 Severity: important Hi,
A dpkg run on a buildd host showed the following: Removing fontconfig ... dpkg: error processing fontconfig (--purge): subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 After an 'apt-get -f install' run, I could run dpkg --purge fontconfig, and then purge the other newly installed packages. A prerm script called at purge time cannot readily assume that dependencies are available, so should not error out if they happen to be not there. -- The biometric identification system at the gates of the CIA headquarters works because there's a guard with a large gun making sure no one is trying to fool the system. http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2009/01/biometrics.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
