Message #5 received at maintonly@bugs.debian.org (full text, mbox, reply):
Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.0.8
Hello,
I installed zgv, found out I did not really want it, and failed to
uninstall it :
anonimo# dpkg --purge zgv
(Reading database ... 18990 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing zgv ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/zgv.prerm: install-mime: command not found
dpkg: error processing zgv (--purge):
subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
zgv
I checked that (at least one) other packages could be "purged"
without complaints.
I use :
Debian 1.3
Linux 2.0.30
libc.so.5.4.33
Please tell me if I sent this mail to the wrong place,
Thanks you for the Debian distribution,
Etienne
