[Bug 220208] Re: package nagios2-common 2.9-1 failed to upgrade:

[Thierry Carrez]

In fact it's not the nagios2 prerm that fails, it's the nagios2-common one. It is run after the nagios2 one in upgrade situations.
This minimal patch fixes it.

I'll post a cleaner (but heavier) patch soon, that will make use of
dh_installinit --error-handler option to show a "Nagios was probably
already stopped" message (and avoid the lintian warning about lack of
#DEBHELPER# in nagios2-common.prerm).
