Followup-For: Bug #683757
Control: severity -1 serious
Control: found -1 0.5.3-1~exp1
Control: found -1 0.5.3-1~exp2

Fixing this bug has introduced a regression:

  Removing bamfdaemon (0.5.3-1~exp2) ...
  rmdir: failed to remove '/usr/share/applications': No such file or directory
  dpkg: error processing package bamfdaemon (--remove):
   subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1

Instead of messing with that directory manually, the package
should rather ship it as an empty directory and let dpkg handle
its creation and removal.
