Public bug reported: Dpkg throws an error "rm: cannot remove ‘/var/games/’: Is a directory", and then fails with status 1.
Turns out there's a typo in the postrm script. I manually edited /var/lib/dpkg/info/gnome-robots.postrm to read FILE instead of FILES (see patch below), and now it deinstalls just fine. ** Affects: gnome-nibbles (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Patch added: "gnome-robots.postrm.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1205202/+attachment/3749539/+files/gnome-robots.postrm.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1205202 Title: Can't upgrade/remove gnome-robots To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-nibbles/+bug/1205202/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
