Removing broken hylafax-package
Hallo,
I installed hylafax_4.0.1-1_i386.deb, but it would not configure as a result of some missing scripts.
When I tried to remove it, I could not. Here is the result of my effort:
------------------------------------------------
dpkg --force-remove-reinstreq --purge hylafax
(Reading database ... 14451 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing hylafax ...
FATAL ERROR: /var/spool/fax/etc/setup.cache is missing!
The file /var/spool/fax/etc/setup.cache is not present. This
probably means the machine has not been setup using the faxsetup(1M)
command. Read the documentation on setting up HylaFAX before you
startup a server system.
dpkg: error processing hylafax (--purge):
subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

How do I get rid of this?
