Package: sasl2-bin
Version: 2.1.22.dfsg1-23
Severity: normal
Upgrading an etch machine to lenny fails on the sasl2-bin package because
/etc/sasldb2 doesn't exist. From the postinst:
--
# If the database contains no users, just wipe it out,
# it will be recreated later in the current format
if [ -e $SASLDB_FILE ] && \
[ `sasldblistusers2 | wc -l -eq 0` ]; then
rm $SASLDB_FILE
else
# The database had users, begin upgrade procedure
# Make backup and handle errors
db_get cyrus-sasl2/backup-sasldb2
if ! cp --archive $SASLDB_FILE "$RET" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
db_input high cyrus-sasl2/upgrade-sasldb2-backup-failed || true
db_go || true
exit 1
fi
--
If $SASLDB_FILE (/etc/sasldb2) doesn't exist, the else branch is hit and the
cp(1) fails, aborting the package upgrade. Perhaps something like the
following would be better?
--
if [ -e $SASLDB_FILE ]; then
if [ `sasldblistusers2 | wc -l -eq 0` ]; then
rm $SASLDB_FILE
else
# The database had users, begin upgrade procedure
[...]
fi
