Thanks, I've been doing some test of my own, and the problem is that the mv_conffile shouldn't be present in the prerm but in the preinst. This doesn't create any problems when the file is there, but fail when the file isn't present.

Thanks for reporting, it will be fixed in the coming upload.

That's postrm instead of prerm (taken from the dpkg-maintscript-helper manpage), but the problem isn't solved due to another issue on the php5{dis,en}mod command when the conffile isn't present.

Any way, it seems that creating the file manually (e.g. with touch) will let you later remove the package (although I would also purge it).
