Hi everyone! This is my first post here and I'm sorry if this is a wrong section

I have a problem with uninstalling aMSN on N900 which installation failed. I have ran out of ideas what to do with this. dpkg -L amsn gives "Package amsn' does not have any files (!)". I have tried

- N900 app manager (can't uninstall)
- dpkg -r amsn (says "Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal."
- dpkg --purge amsn (same as above)
- dpkg --purge --force-remove-reinstreq amsn (says that amsn.desktop does not exist etc.)

I have also tried to update it with the app. manager but.. nothing :/

EDIT: /var/lib/dpkg/status and /var/lib/dpkg/available might be the answer but I don't wanna mess them up if I do something wrong... So, any ideas?
