Sure, that's the desired result; what I'm asking is, would having an
empty dpkg-managed directory as suggested actually achieve it, or is it
necessary to rm -rf it in the postrm anyway?

(If you have an interest in Tremulous, I'm trying to give it away -
please feel free to adopt it! If nobody wants it, I'm likely to ask for
its removal from wheezy before the freeze, because I don't think it's
sufficiently alive-upstream or security-supported-upstream to be in a
stable release without a maintainer who cares about it.)
