Bug#351329: apmd: purging fails

[Claudio Nieder]

Hi,

I do not know what piuparts is, but when I try to purge apmd the same happens. 
Even if I first create the directories which it is complaining about, so 
probably the purge script tries to delete them twice.


# mkdir /etc/apm/suspend.d /etc/apm/resume.d && ls -l /etc/apm && dpkg --purge 
apmd; ls -l /etc/apm

Bug#351329: apmd: purging fails

[Lars Wirzenius]

Package: apmd
Version: 3.2.2-5

While testing apmd with piuparts, I ran into the following problem:

  Purging configuration files for apmd ...
  rmdir: /etc/apm/suspend.d: No such file or directory
  rmdir: /etc/apm/resume.d: No such file or directory
  dpkg: error processing apmd (--purge):
   subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1

I've attached the piuparts log file (since it is so small) in the hopes
that it is helpful.
