I am having somewhat the same problem..
I installed db2 and it failed saying
 Setting up db2exc (9.7.1-3hardy1) ...
 * Setting DB2 library path... [ OK ]
 * Registering installation in the DB2 global registry... [ OK ]
 * Creating new group and user for Database Administration Server... [ OK ]
 * Creating Database Administration Server... ERROR: Could not create default 
instances. Aborting Configuration...
dpkg: error processing db2exc (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 db2exc
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

And since then i am not able to install/update anything. It always retrns an 
error "E: db2exc: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error 
exit status 1".And I am using ubuntu 10.04 lts..32 bit..
I do not know anything about the postrm or postint files and what to do with 
them.. But the above post suggested to do some changes in the 
/var/lib/dpkg/info/db2exc.postrm file.
Patch : http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11930183/db2.ubuntu.patch
But nothing happened even after that.
Please suggest something.
