reassign dash
thanks
It does purge here, with both dpkg and aptitude.
What shell are you using when seeing this? (The bug report indicates
bash). Testing with dash, I notice that dash silently leaves the symlink
in place [2]. Bash handles it ok. [3] and the postrm script itself is
posixly correct as far as I can tell. [4].
Did you change /etc/udev/rules.d/z60_kvm.rules yourself? Is it still a
symbolic link?
