Subject: failure to remove+purge debian package generated by make deb-pkg
Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2010 22:36:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100225213610.GA30380@pengutronix.de> (raw)

Hello,

I created and successfully installed a custom kernel package using
$(make deb-pkg).

Then after a failed boot test I removed it and then thought that I
actually want to purge it.  Here's the result:

	user@host:~$ sudo dpkg --remove linux-image-2.6.33-rc8-rt
	(Reading database ... 153356 files and directories currently installed.)
	Removing linux-image-2.6.33-rc8-rt ...
	update-initramfs: Deleting /boot/initrd.img-2.6.33-rc8-rt

	user@host:~$ sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-2.6.33-rc8-rt
	(Reading database ... 150555 files and directories currently installed.)
	Removing linux-image-2.6.33-rc8-rt ...
	Purging configuration files for linux-image-2.6.33-rc8-rt ...
	Cannot delete /boot/initrd.img-2.6.33-rc8-rt, doesn't exist.
	run-parts: /etc/kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools exited with return code 1
	dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.33-rc8-rt (--purge):
	 subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1
	Errors were encountered while processing:
	 linux-image-2.6.33-rc8-rt

I didn't check if the problem is the package or initramfs-tools
(0.93.4).

Best regards
Uwe
