Package: mh-e
Version: 7.85-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

in my amd64 system I have a i386 chroot (that contains my older Debian
system).  When I install or upgrade mh-e in this chroot, the postinst
script blocks on the execution of "idn".  Here are the processes that
are started by the postinst:

# ps auxw
[...]
root     20571  0.0  0.1   4544  1280 pts/20   S+   15:01   0:00 /bin/sh 
/var/lib/dpkg/info/mh-e.postinst configure
root     20572  0.0  0.1   5644  1864 pts/20   S+   15:01   0:00 /usr/bin/perl 
-w /usr/lib/emacsen-common/emacs-package-install mh-e
root     20581  0.0  0.0      0     0 pts/20   Z+   15:01   0:00 
[emacs-package-i] <defunct>
root     20584  0.0  0.1   4552  1320 pts/20   S+   15:01   0:00 /bin/sh -e 
/usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/mh-e emacs21 em
root     20591  0.0  0.6  13552  7136 pts/20   S+   15:01   0:00 emacs21 -q 
--no-site-file -no-site-file -batch -l path.el -f batch-
root     20596  0.0  0.0   3740   656 ?        Ss   15:01   0:00 /usr/bin/idn 
--quiet --idna-to-ascii --usestd3asciirules

Killing the "idn" process unblocks the script and allows the package
to configure.

This problem does not exist in my other i386 system, that is not a
chroot and runs on a i386 kernel.
