[Bug 366925] Re: 9.04 upgrade freeciv-client subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 255

[Fuzzy Eric]

Unhelpful answer:
    $ ggz-config --remove --modfile=/usr/share/ggz/modules/freeciv/civclient.dsc
    (<errorsys>) Unable to read or write file /etc/ggz.modules: Permission denied
Insufficient permission to install modules

Helpful answer:
    # ggz-config --remove --modfile=/usr/share/ggz/modules/freeciv/civclient.dsc
    # echo $?
    0

As a quick check (to make sure that freeciv-client-gtk did not silently finish upgrading)...
    # dpkg -l freeciv*
