[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 454115] Re: apt-get remove fails for xtux-client and xtux-server

[Oliver Treichel]

Hi,

I've just installed 0.2.030306-12 from the Lucid universe repository on
my current Ubuntu 9.10. Install and remove now work without problems.

As an alternative, I used the following work-around to get rid of the
old 0.2.030306-11 packages:

$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/ggz/games /etc/ggz/rooms
$ sudo apt-get purge xtux-server
$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/ggz/clients
$ sudo apt-get purge xtux-client xtux-levels xtux-common

Thanks,
Oliver
