Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ufw

[ufw_0.30pre1-0ubuntu2 on lucid]

ufw's postrm script does the following on purge:

        for exe in iptables ip6tables
        do
            if which $exe > /dev/null 2>&1; then
                $exe -P INPUT ACCEPT 2>/dev/null || true
                $exe -P OUTPUT ACCEPT 2>/dev/null || true
                $exe -P FORWARD ACCEPT 2>/dev/null || true
                $exe -F 2>/dev/null || true
                $exe -X 2>/dev/null || true
            fi
        done

That's completely unexpected if ufw wasn't in use at all and there's another 
firewall configured (e.g. shorewall/shorewall6).
The policies and chains should only be reset if ufw actually was in use.

Purging should not set reset policies/chains if ufw wasn't enabled
