[Bug 493040] [NEW] after failed attempt to instal konsole the error comes back at the end of any installation "unable to execute installed pre-removal script". Cannot install or remove this program.

[Adam Dyśko]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: konsole

After failed attempt to install konsole the error comes back at the end of any installation "unable to execute installed pre-removal script". Cannot install or remove this program. It may not be a bug but I don't know how to remove this error which appears now at the end of any installation/update.
Example message when trying to remove konsole:
Removing konsole ...

dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute installed pre-removal script: Exec
format error

dpkg: error processing konsole (--remove):

 subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 2

dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute installed post-installation script:
Exec format error

dpkg: error while cleaning up:

 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
status 2

Errors were encountered while processing:

 konsole


Otherwise everything works fine. I just ignore this message.
