I believe qwerty12 is (or was) the rootsh package maintainer... he should be along shortly. 
Might be worth dropping him a PM if he misses your thread.

I was wondering where I am supposed to report a bug with the rootsh package? I can't find it in bugzilla.
The unisntall script doesn't work. It gives an error when removing the package via app manager. I needed to add a 'then' to the if statement in:
/var/lib/dpkg/info/rootsh.prerm
to make it work.
i.e.
#!/bin/sh
if [ -x /usr/sbin/gainroot.old ]
then
mv /usr/sbin/gainroot.old /usr/sbin/gainroot
fi
After making that change I was able to uninstall via app manager.
Thank you. Faced the same problem here. Got it uninstalled with your suggestion. Don't want stuff that can't be removed easily.

New version 1.8 which fixing uninstall bug was promoted to Extras-Testing. Vote for fixed version: http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...el/rootsh/1.8/
