[Bug 1120054] Re: package php5-gd 5.4.6-1ubuntu1.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

[Robie Basak]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

It looks like this bug is the same as this Debian bug:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=692013 and this has
been fixed in Raring.

As a workaround in previous releases, you can edit
/var/lib/dpkg/info/php5-gd.prerm and comment out the php5dismod line,
and then try again.

Since this issue is fixed in the development release, I'm marking this
bug as Fix Released. If I'm wrong, please do explain and change it back
to New.
