* use of force option comes as first possibility. * editting prerm/postrm scripts are another possibilities. Read: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch02.en.html#_recovery_from_a_broken_system http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch02.en.html#_fixing_broken_package_script Please remember, use of dpkg with --force-all either for install or remove may yield broken system.
