the prerm-script is usually autogenerated and consists of an automatic part
and a manual part, which is executed if not all requirements are met for the
automatic part.
this is checked by a simple if-query.
you have to remove the if-query, the automatic part and the closing endif to
ensure a clean uninstall. just writing "exit 0" at the top would work, too,
but might leave some litter on your system.
