I really felt it was that simple and so probably no challenge.

That's the typical fix if you want to delete a directory but failed.

Cool. I'll try it myself. The next thing should probably be to use
some dir in /tmp or /var/tmp as TMPPOSTINST. As far as I remember
something in /usr/lib was used - that's just wrong (and Bashkar agreed
to this opinion in one of his first mails in this thread).
Once you get this working its time to talk to Bashkar even more
intensively how to *use* this initial package to create the real
package. I'm afraid I can't be of much help here - except that I
will constantly check your commits and can test and watch what
you did.
Really cool that you approached until this state. Keep on the good
work.
Kind regards
Andreas.
