Hello again!
Thanks to all, who have answered. The first to replys where vacation
mails, the third men doesn't work there anymore ;-)
But then came three real answers:
Ronald Loftin <reloftin@syr.edu>
suggested to reinstall the package and then remove it. The problem was,
that no packages could be added or removed.
James Coby <James.E.Coby.Jr@cdc.com> and
Sean <shadow6@bellsouth.net>
suggest to look at the file /var/sadm/install/contents and indeed, this
file was corrupt. After restoring it (copying the line from another
machine) we were able to remove the package.
Thanks again,
Stephan.
