cmucl won't uninstall - help

2009-06-22 Thread Zachary Uram 
Anyone know how I can get cmucl to be totally removed? Some problem in
the packaging script I guess. I am running Debian squeeze.

lisp# apt-cache policy cmucl
cmucl:
  Installed: 19e-20080501-2
  Candidate: 19e-20080501-2
  Version table:

Yes.  Please file a bug.

Removing cmucl ...
update-binfmts: warning: /var/lib/binfmts/cmucl does not exist;
nothing to do! update-binfmts: exiting due to previous errors

Workaround (but please do file a bug):
1. Find the call to update-binfmts in /var/lib/dpkg/cmucl.*rm
   1b.  If you can't find that call, post those files to the list and see if 
we can find it.
2. Add || true to the end of the pipeline.
3. Remove it normally.
