Package: libapache2-mod-php5
Version: 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny4

Steps to reproduce:
1. aptitude install libapache2-mod-php5
2. aptitude purge libapache2-mod-php5

actual result:
error during purge operatoion:
[...]
Removing libapache2-mod-php5 ...
Module php5 disabled.
Run '/etc/init.d/apache2 restart' to activate new configuration!
Purging configuration files for libapache2-mod-php5 ...
dpkg - warning: while removing libapache2-mod-php5, directory 
`/etc/php5/apache2' not empty so not removed.
[...]

expected result:
successful purge without any warnings

looking into /etc/php5/apache2 shows that there's still a file called: 
".start" located there which hasn't been removed.
