Bug#264241: postrm assumes mktexlsr is available
Package: tetex-extra
Version: 2.0.2a-2
Severity: serious
tetex-extra's postrm fails:
(Reading database ... 7896 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing tetex-extra ...
Purging configuration files for tetex-extra ...
dpkg: error processing tetex-extra (--purge):
subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
tetex-extra
You can't assume that any of your dependencies are available in your postrm
script, so you need to handle the case where mktexlsr has already been
removed.
