dpkg: warning: while removing insecurity-demos, directory '/usr/share/insecuritydemos/demos' not empty so not removed
Processing triggers for man-db ...
The offending files are:
__init__.pyc
wireless_demos.pyc
/usr/share/insecuritydemos also contains...
tshark.pyc
wireless_demo_set.pyc
wlan.pyc
...so I guess the uninstall aborted?
I did not persist any data or manually modify the contents of these directories. I did not try an apt-get purge. Subsequent attempts to remove or purge the package fail with E: Unable to locate package insecurity-demos. Subsequent re-installation seems to work fine. An apt-get purge, following re-installation, produces the same error.
