Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.0.33

Dpkg doesn't seem to check if the directory exists when open():ing them
to find files to purge.

Example:
The package angband had config-files in /etc/angband/edit/

dpkg does open() on /etc/angband/edit/, which failed because that
directory didn't exist for some reason.
Then it got segfault... (probably doesn't check for return-values)
