rabbitmq error and traceback when re-installing maas

[Mike McCracken]

Seeing problems re-installing maas during testing of cloud-installer:

1. install maas
2. uninstall maas (as part of cloud-uninstall script here: https://github.com/Ubuntu-Solutions-Engineering/cloud-installer/blob/master/tools/cloud-uninstall )
maas-relevant parts of that script:
    juju destroy-environment --yes --force maas
    rm -r ~/.maascli.db

    apt_purge '.*maas.*' 'bind9'
    sudo -u postgres psql -c 'drop database maasdb;'

3. re-install maas as part of the dependencies for the cloud installer

=> apt hangs - the following excerpt shows errors printed to the screen before it hangs.

Oops, sorry about the dupe. I will make a note to check the package bugs next time.
