Hello,

tried searching for a solution how to fix my issue but haven´t found anything that could help me so far.
I have installed Piwigo via apt-get from the Debian repository (Using Debian 6.0.10) - upgrading Debian is not an option currently for me.

When i try to remove piwigo from my system i always get the same error:

Code:

 apt-get remove piwigo
Reading package lists... Done

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  smarty libphp-pclzip libjs-jquery

Is there any option to solve this or a list of files that i can remove manually?

Thanks in advance.

I don't remember exactly what is the problem but you can fix the problem by emptied the pre-removal script.

The content of the pre-removal (/var/lib/dpkg/info/piwigo.prerm) script is probably something like that (depending of piwigo version installed) :

Code:

#!/bin/sh
# postrm script for piwigo

set -e

. /usr/share/debconf/confmodule

if [ -f /usr/share/dbconfig-common/dpkg/prerm ]; then
    . /usr/share/dbconfig-common/dpkg/prerm

    dbc_go piwigo $@
fi

db_stop

# #DEBHELPER#

exit 0

I don't know what the problem is but if you only want to remove piwigo you can just replace that script by an empty one :

Code:

#!/bin/sh
exit 0
