Bug Description

Setting up scratch (1.1-0~r766+pkg21~precise1) ...
update-alternatives: error: alternative path /usr/bin/scratch doesn't exist.
dpkg: error processing scratch (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 scratch
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

This happened when I tried to update scratch, even when I removed and did a reinstall, I've got the same error
