That is in: dpkg -S /usr/bin/py3clean python3-minimal: /usr/bin/py3clean The prerm comes in by dhpython # Automatically added by dhpython: if which py3clean >/dev/null 2>&1; then py3clean -p python3-markupsafe else dpkg -L python3-markupsafe | perl -ne 's,/([^/]*)\.py$,/__pycache__/\1.*, or next; unlink $_ or die $! foreach glob($_)' find /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ -type d -name __pycache__ -empty -print0 | xargs --null --no-run-if-empty rmdir fi That actually should be safe, but for whatever reasons in your case didn't work. Can you workaround for yourself by installing pytohn3-minimal? I tried to recreate by uninstalling python3-minimal but it still installed/remove correctly. Do you have any extra insight to your local config that might be related? ** Changed in: markupsafe (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1621892 Title: package python3-markupsafe 0.18-1build2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 127 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/markupsafe/+bug/1621892/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
