2006-01-04 Thread Nathanael Nerode
Package: linux-2.6 Severity: serious Justification: Won't uninstall cleanly It hangs on this line of the postrm script: my $ret = purge(); I can get it to work by deleting this line. Perhaps this is because a debconf routine is being called after stop has been called? I don't know, but

Doing some late-night QA work, and noticed that you were planning to upload this in September. It does need an upload badly. Alternatively, you could orphan it or ask for it to be removed (your choice). It's already been kicked out of 'testing' so it won't be in the next release of Debian
