¿Cómo eliminar un paquete que falla después de la instalación y la secuencia de comandos previa a la eliminación?

Tengo un problema con el paquete openqrm.

¿Cómo lo elimino?

Puede intentar actualizar el paquete antes de purgarlo. En algunos casos, el nuevo paquete arreglará el script de eliminación ( dpkgestá hecho para que los nuevos paquetes puedan arreglar incluso los scripts de transición de paquetes antiguos).

Si eso no funciona, mire /var/lib/dpkg/info/openqrm.postinstcomo Kyle sugirió, localice la línea que falla, comente e intente purgar nuevamente. Repita hasta el éxito.

Lo siguiente funcionó para mí:

• rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/info/openqrm.*
• rm -rf / usr / share / openqrm
• rm -rf / etc / default / openqrm
• rm -rf /etc/init.d/openqrm
• apt-get purge openqrm

Solo intenta tocar el archivo que falta. Si este es solo un archivo faltante, podría ser una gran solución.

touch /usr/share/openqrm/etc/openqrm-server.conf

Ahora intente eliminar el paquete con apt-get o aptitude.

Mire /var/lib/dpkg/info/openqrm.postinst y vea lo que está tratando de hacer.

Aquí hay una publicación sobre el mismo tipo de error (paquete diferente, sin embargo). ¿Ya lo has intentado dpkg --force-all?
