    Where that pre-removal script is kept? I gues that problem is in permitions, what other problems
    can be with that script?

    Preparing to replace finger 0.17-6 (using .../finger_0.17-7_i386.deb) ...
    dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute old pre-removal script: Permission denied
    dpkg: warning - old pre-removal script returned error exit status 2
