Package: 9menu
dpkg operations (eg. `dpkg --purge 9menu`) failed for me with the message
"exec format error" on Debian Woody. Looking at the problem, it seems
that 9menu.postinst and 9menu.preinst in /var/lib/dpkg/info lack the
line "#!/bin/sh" at the top - causing the error, as the files are then
treated as a binary.
Hope this is useful,
Grahame
