Package: policy

Hi,

In section 6.8 it says:
     1.   <prerm> remove

          If prerm fails during replacement due to conflict

               <conflictor's-postinst> abort-remove \
                 in-favour <package> <new-version>

          Or else we call:

               <postinst> abort-remove

          If this fails, the package is in a "Failed-Config" state, or else
          it remains "Installed".


This remains "Installed" is wrong.  It should remain in the state it
was before the prerm remove was called.   The abort-remove should undo
what the prerm remove did, and prerm remove can be called from other
states than installed.

Please see bug #432893.
