Bug#351326: xserver-xorg: trouble purging
Package: xserver-xorg Version: 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 While I was testing xserver-xfree86 (which just depends on xserver-xorg) with piuparts, I got the following error: 0m12.6s ERROR: Command failed (status=256): 'chroot /tmp/tmpS7lFxN dpkg --purge --pending' (Reading database ... 6930 files and directories currently installed.) Removing xserver-xorg ... Purging configuration files for xserver-xorg ... Removing any system startup links for /etc/init.d/xserver-xorg ... dpkg: error processing xserver-xorg (--purge): subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 20 Unfortunately, the X packages have maintainer scripts that scare me and confuse me, so I failed to find the reason for this problem. Sorry. I have attached the bzip2'd piuparts log file. If I can provide assistance in debugging this, please don't hesitate to ask. -- Connection resented by peer xserver-xfree86_6.9.0.dfsg.1-4.log.bz2 Description: application/bzip

Sorry. At the very end of xserver-xorg.postrm it sources /usr/share/debconf/confmodule to call db_purge (added by dh_installdebconf) and gets reinvoked under debconf. Then update-rc.d prints the same message about startup links to debconf redirected stdout, which makes debconf bail out. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
