Hi,
% sudo dpkg -P ippl

Removing system user
/usr/sbin/deluser: In order to use the --remove-home, --remove-all-files,
and --backup features,
you need to install the `perl-modules' package. To accomplish that, run
apt-get install perl-modules.
dpkg: error processing ippl (--purge):
subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1

Hrm.

Priority: standard
% grep -B2 -A2 deluser /var/lib/dpkg/info/ippl.p*
rm -rf /var/log/ippl
if command -v deluser >/dev/null; then
echo >&2 'Removing system user'
deluser --remove-home --system $USERNAME
else
echo >&2 'Not removing system user, deluser not found'

Obviously I'll install perl-modules to work around this problem, but there
should be a better way.
