Removing the partly installed package also doesn't work well:

# dpkg --purge gphoto
(Reading database ... 44388 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing gphoto ...
Purging configuration files for gphoto ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/gphoto.postrm: e: command not found

Try using vim with colour syntax highlighting, you will see that line 13
has a line break at column 80 where you won't normally notice it. Looks
like cut & paste...

Tip: always test whether you can also actually remove the package before
releasing it on an unsuspecting public.
