Um, one of the cases that your maintainer script needs to handle is that the
admin has manually *removed* the symlink because they didn't want the rules
to be used.  That's how the rules in /etc/udev/rules.d are supposed to be
managed.

Your postrm:

         [ -L /etc/udev/rules.d/z60_kvm.rules ] && \
         rm /etc/udev/rules.d/z60_kvm.rules

exits non-zero if the symlink has already been removed (or if it was never
added for some reason, etc).

Well, that's evidently a separate bug.
