[Bug 39598] Re: Unable to install and then uninstall.

[Munckfish]

I just had this problem purging firestarter.

These were the files left behind for me

$ dpkg -L firestarter
/etc/dhclient-exit-hooks
/etc/firestarter
/etc/firestarter/non-routables
/etc/init.d/firestarter

Despite the listing it seemed to have removed everything ok except for
removing a line it added to /etc/dhclient-exit-hooks. I had no other
lines in this file except the one added by firestarter so I just moved
the file out the way and ran the purge again. This time it completely
without issue.
