Package: mailman3-suite Version: 0+20170523-9 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
Thanks for your work on this package. I attempted to install mailman3 but found that the service would not start and generated a lot of cron errors as a result. Efforts to configure and fix the package failed and I decided to remove it. Unfortunately I cannot remove this package. oldgondolin:/home/colin# aptitude -f purge mailman3-suite The following packages will be REMOVED: mailman3-suite{ap} 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 847 not upgraded. Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 99.3 kB will be freed. Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?] y (Reading database ... 506921 files and directories currently installed.) Removing mailman3-suite (0+20170523-9) ... You must invoke apache2-maintscript-helper with an unmodified environment when sourcing it dpkg: error processing package mailman3-suite (--remove): installed mailman3-suite package post-removal script subprocess returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: mailman3-suite E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I wouldn't mind testing the package again, but at the moment it's rendering the entire packaging system inoperative. As it happens this is on a server I'm decomissioning, but it's still making life more complicated.
