Laurent: do you want me to commit that?
See also #398540: as Debian policy says: "the `postrm' cannot rely on
any non-essential packages to be present during the `purge' phase."
BTW, ntp and ntp-simple and openssh-server call deluser in postrm. I
can't find a bug about that on
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/[EMAIL PROTECTED];tag=grid5000
. Lucas: didn't piuparts find it?
Bye,
