dpkg: error while cleaning up
Hi guys,
I'm busy setting up a mail relay on Etch 3 Beta, and I decided to have a
look at postfix-policyd. Installing it gave me an error though. Now
when I apt-get install anything, I get the same dpkg error for
postfix-policyd, and trying to remove it give the same problem:
mail:~# dpkg -r postfix-policyd
