Hello,

I started uninstalling PSA on a test machine using dpkg -P <packagenames> and now I have a big mess because it couldn't uninstall every packages. It's got to the point that I can't even install new packages with apt-get install.

As you can see here in the output I would like to install exim4 package:

Can anyone help me forcing the removal of PSA packages ? I think that would be the best. Or does anyone have another idea ?

Thanks
