Public bug reported: Binary package hint: atftp
I was going to replace atftpd with tftpd-hpa, so I told my machine to remove it (apt-get remove --purge atftpd). When it came time to remove the tftpboot dir, it barked rm: cannot remove `/var/lib/tftpboot': Is a directory Well,we both know that does happen to be a directory. So, my guess is that the remove script forgot the -r option when it was time to remove that directory... or something like that.
