I don't know Debian/Ubuntu packaging system well (I'm just about to learn it;), 
so bear that in mind;)
But I fixed that on my Hardy installation by issuing the following commands as 
root:
mkdir -p /usr/share/apps/d3lphin/servicemenus/
touch /usr/share/apps/d3lphin/servicemenus/media_safelyremove.desktop.distrib

Now you should be able to remove kio-umountwrapper. Afterwards you can delete 
/usr/share/apps/d3lphin and its contents.
I wanted to fix it as soon as possible so I haven't done any proper research 
yet. This is what I think is happening:
When  kio-umountwrapper is installed it sets two divertions (I'm not yet sure 
if I get it right)i n the script executed after installation and another one if 
upgraded (the one that was causing issues)  but the postremoval script one 
removes all three. But if never upgraded kio-umountwrapper it never created the 
third divertion in the first place. Hence the problems.
Of course my workaround is not a proper solution, just a hack.Tell me if it 
worked for you. Also if someone with more insight could correct or clarify what 
I said it would benefit at least me;)
