Perhaps this:

postuninstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
rm -f /etc/hal/device.d/fstab-sync
/sbin/ldconfig
if [ "$1" -ge "1" ]; then
  service haldaemon condrestart > /dev/null 2>&1
fi

should instead be this?:

if [ "$1" -eq "0"]; then
  rm -f /etc/hal/device.d/fstab-sync
fi
/sbin/ldconfig
if [ "$1" -ge "1" ]; then
  service haldaemon condrestart > /dev/null 2>&1
fi
