I ran into a problem with libapache-mod-perl from a hacked installation that had a similar error. It was failing the call to apache-modconf. I worked around it by editing the prerm script to avoid generating the error. This allowed the package to be removed. You may need to do the same by editing the script and remove the 'set -e' option from the script or add 'bad-command || true' or add an 'exit 0' in an appropriate place. Since you are removing the package this will be okay, note the problem, and then install the package again later. Bob
