The version in unstable/testing however is 4.2.33-1 resp. 4.2.32-1, which
makes your package uninstallable. No, findutils can't be removed, as it is
essential.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ # dpkg --no-act --purge findutils
dpkg: error processing findutils (--purge):
 This is an essential package - it should not be removed.
Errors were encountered while processing:
 findutils

Thanks,

P.S.: there are a lot of bugs on your package having the tag "fixed", but
were never closed.
