uid-locks directory not removed when .deb is uninstalled

The Plash debian package should remove the /var/lib/plash-chroot-jail/plash-uid-locks directory when it is uninstalled, but it does not currently do this. dpkg cannot do this automatically because lock files have been created inside the directory.

$ sudo dpkg -r plash
(Reading database ... 95616 files and directories currently installed.)

dpkg - warning: while removing plash, directory `/var/lib/plash-chroot-jail/plash-uid-locks' not empty so not removed.
