I think the error message is telling you that it was started, or an 
attempt to start it in your default run level. (update-rc.d)

You can't get rid of a package, or at least , I don't think you can, if 
it is being loaded/run from your start up scripts. So stop the 
postgresgl daemon first before trying to remove the package.
