Package: rssh
Version: 2.3.2-4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

I wondered why my rssh chroot setup doesn't work anymore and found out
that /usr/lib/rssh/rssh_chroot_helper doesn't get the +s bit set.

The code in your postinst script doesn't look correct:

#! /bin/sh -e
# postinst script for rssh

if [ "$1" = "configure" ] || [ "$1" = "reconfigure" ] ; then
    . /usr/share/debconf/confmodule
    db_get rssh/chroot_helper_setuid
    setuid="$RET"
    db_stop

    if [ ! -x /usr/sbin/dpkg-statoverride ] ; then
        #^ removing the NOT helps and gets me any further
        dpkg-statoverride --list /usr/lib/rssh/rssh_chroot_helper > /dev/null
        # but here it stops because you the call above returns a $? != 0 and you
        # have set -e (exit if any command returns an exitvalue != 0)
        status=$?
        if [ "$status" != 0 ] ; then
            if [ "$setuid" = "true" ] ; then
                chmod 4755 /usr/lib/rssh/rssh_chroot_helper
            else
                chmod 0755 /usr/lib/rssh/rssh_chroot_helper
            fi
        fi
    fi

    if [ -x /usr/sbin/add-shell ]; then
        /usr/sbin/add-shell /usr/bin/rssh
    fi
fi

exit 0

#----------------------------------------------
Changing it to this fixes the problem for me

#! /bin/sh
# postinst script for rssh

if [ "$1" = "configure" ] || [ "$1" = "reconfigure" ] ; then
    . /usr/share/debconf/confmodule
    db_get rssh/chroot_helper_setuid
    setuid="$RET"
    db_stop

    if [ -x /usr/sbin/dpkg-statoverride ] ; then
        dpkg-statoverride --list /usr/lib/rssh/rssh_chroot_helper > /dev/null
        status=$?
        if [ "$status" != 0 ] ; then
            if [ "$setuid" = "true" ] ; then
                chmod 4755 /usr/lib/rssh/rssh_chroot_helper
            else
                chmod 0755 /usr/lib/rssh/rssh_chroot_helper
            fi
        fi
    fi

    if [ -x /usr/sbin/add-shell ]; then
        /usr/sbin/add-shell /usr/bin/rssh
    fi
fi

exit 0
