Bug Description
Binary package hint: dpkg
I tried to clean up my intrepid chroot and purged the plethora of build dependencies I just installed for abiword. Howver, I did not purge abiword itself, thus I got a long list of errors, and finally:
dpkg: too many errors, stopping
dpkg: ../../src/
Aborted (core dumped)
The first line is ok, but the two others should be handled more gracefully. dpkg shouldn't core dump.
I can reproduce this in my intrepid chroot with
dpkg -P `dpkg -l lib*|awk '{print $2}'`
Please keep in mind that this probably *will* purge a lot of -dev packages, so try it in a throwaway chroot.

I saw a very similar failure:
dpkg: too many errors, stopping packages. c:252: process_queue: Assertion `!queuelen' failed.
dpkg: ../../src/
under similar circumstances (long list of errors).
