    ;;

    *)
        echo "postinst called with unknown argument \`$1'" >&2
        exit 1
    ;;
esac

And that in my postrm.ex file:

Code:

case "$1" in
    purge|remove|upgrade|failed-upgrade|abort-install|abort-upgrade|disappear)
        rm -r /etc/myapp/
    ;;

    *)
        echo "postrm called with unknown argument \`$1'" >&2
        exit 1
    ;;
esac

Is that correct? I haven't tested it.
