I investigated the problem but the postinst script explicitly sets the owner of /var/run/monotone to monotone:monotone.
It may be that the problem was due to the monotone user not being present for some reason. Please try again with 0.36-1 (which I just uploaded) and tell us if the problem is gone. Zack has made some changes to the postinst script in this release to correct several problems, one of which may be the cause for this bug. -- Ludovic Brenta. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
