[Vlado Peshov]

Package: nagios3-common
Version: 3.0.6-3

I tried to remove this package and this error occurred:

# apt-get remove -f nagios3-common

dpkg: error processing nagios3-common (--remove):
 subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I have looked in the script nagios3-common and I noticed that ";" is
missing on line 7. Line 7 was:

if [ -f $apacheconf ] then

and I have corrected:

if [ -f $apacheconf ]; then

After this I successfully removed the package.
