On an netapp .snapshot/ is read-only, but only .snapshot.

I can't think of a failure on chmod/chown which should'nt have make the
install crash before in the process. By not crashing here we let the
install finish, databese, web server, and the admin will have clear
error logs if sympa can't start.

Anyway it's a wishlist. It can be flag as wontfix.
