Package: dpkg
Version: 1.14.25
Severity: normal
Hello,
tspc doesn't work anymore. So when I tried to remove it, dpkg delivered
the following:
dpkg -r tspc
(Reading database ... 175350 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing tspc ...
Shutting down IPv6 tunnel: invoke-rc.d: initscript tspc, action "stop"
failed.
dpkg: error processing tspc (--remove):
subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
Setting up IPv6 tunnel: Status error 303 in tunnel negociation: 303
Unsupported tunnel mode
Error is 303: 303 is not defined as a client error, might be a TSP error?
TSP session done
invoke-rc.d: initscript tspc, action "start" failed.
dpkg: error while cleaning up:
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
tspc
I have seen such behaviour also with an foreign .deb provided by Brother
Inc. It looks like dpkg needs a force option to ignore the exit code of
broken scripts from packages to remove.
As a workaround to remove the broken packages, the init.d script need to
be patched, so that they call exit 0.
Greetings
Juergen
