I'm just about to NMU 1.31-2.1 with the following change: --- postgrey-1.31/debian/postinst +++ postgrey-1.31/debian/postinst @@ -14,8 +14,9 @@ getent group postgrey > /dev/null || \ addgroup --system postgrey - if [ ! -e "$DBDIR" ]; then - mkdir -p "$DBDIR" + install -d -o postgrey -g postgrey -m 0700 "$DBDIR" + + if ! dpkg-statoverride --list "$DBDIR" > /dev/null 2>&1 ; then dpkg-statoverride --update --add \ postgrey postgrey 0700 "$DBDIR" fi While I still think that dpkg-statoverride should not be needed, I decided to keep it as NMU is not a place to deal with such things, especially when "mysterious permission resets", which I know nothing about, are in question. -- Marcin Owsiany <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://marcin.owsiany.pl/ GnuPG: 1024D/60F41216 FE67 DA2D 0ACA FC5E 3F75 D6F6 3A0D 8AA0 60F4 1216 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
