I had this problem last week when trying to remaster a Knoppix CD.
The frozen-bubble package is trying to remove a file that is already
gone.  For some reason, dpkg considers this an error.

I read through the frozen-bubble "remove scripts" and did this to
get around its backwards logic...

mkdir /usr/games/frozen-bubble
touch /usr/games/frozen-bubble.wav
apt-get remove frozen-bubble-data

mkdir /usr/games/frozen-bubble
touch /usr/games/frozen-bubble.wav
dpkg --purge frozen-bubble-data
