Package: postgresql Version: 7.5.4 Severity: normal File: postgres On this system, /var/lib/postgres is a mount point for putting a partition devoted to postgres. The stuff in postgresql.postinst which tries to rmdir that directory fails. Fine, I tried to minimially quote out the rmdir stuff from the .postinst, and reran apt-get, and it still was generating the same problem. So, I commented out some more stuff. Now I get an error on pg_createcluster. Sure, I could try and manually patch it some more, but I think it might be time to file this bugreport. You probably have a more elegant way to fix things. I do have a little amount of new data in the dbase here, but I can replace it if need by. Losing the database doesn't concern me too much.
