If the init script is complaining, it is probably for a good reason. You don't need to unpack the package. Instead, you should identify why the init script is failing (perhaps due to misconfiguration?) by running it manually and checking log files. Once that is cleaned up, you should be able to get rid of it cleanly. Working around the protective measures put in place by the package authors is a sure way to get unintended consequences.
