Bug#78233: 9menu postinst and preinst scripts cannot run



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
