Yes, I can confirm it too
That's due to a wrong sed command in the prerm script.
You need to manually fix it before upgrading or uninstalling wizard-mounter.
Follow the howto on prerm on this page :
https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=444
In brief:
1. download the new prerm script on the link upper
2. copy the new prerm script (wizard-mounter.prerm) to /var/lib/dpkg/info/wizard-mounter.prerm
3. You're done.
I'm sorry for the troubles
Put the content that you'd like to have in sudoers into a file called "wizard-mounter.sudoers" and install that file to /etc/sudoers.d/ as part of your package. In the postinst and postrm, just run "update-sudoers".
If your wizard-mounter.sudoers file is dodgy, update-sudoers doesn't update /etc/sudoers as opposed to just ruining it. Which is what is happening currently with your sed method. Simple as that.

I'll look how to use/integrate it in wizard-mounter.

I had the same issue after upgrading wizard mounter - corrupted sudoers. Just my 2 cents.
Thanks,
Corwin
Thanks,

Can someone clarify what needs to be fixed in the sudoers file?
I've changed line 7 to allow umount of /media/mmc1, and deleted the extra /media/mmc2 from line 140. This has got rid of the error but I'm not sure whether that's cleared up everything properly or not, and I'd rather not reflash.

I just updated the parem file. There is a new update available today, is it safe to update now? Sorry for the Post, just trying to avoid brick mode
p.s. the Permissions on the old parem file was 755, but your update was 744. I reset the new one to 755.
Why were the permissions different? Does it matter?

The ver. 1.5.6 uses the update-sudoers stuff to update your sudoers file, so it's safer to update (I suppose).
I think the permission change when you download the file (or I upload it to garage), changing it manually is trivial.

Ok. I just prepared for a reflash.
just one keystroke away from starting it.
But I thought IŽd check the thread again.
One thing I have noticed is that I have a lot of old folder remaining from previous installed programs.
Is there any smart way of cleaning up /home/user from these folders?
