Seems like broken IFS handling in read, postfix's post-install script
does:
test -n "$create" && {
exec <$daemon_directory/postfix-files || exit 1
while IFS=: read path type owner group mode flags junk
do
IFS="$BACKUP_IFS"
set_permission=
# Skip comments. Skip shared files, if updating a secondary instance.
[snip]
# Skip hard links and symbolic links.
case $type in
[hl]) continue;;
[df]) ;;
*) echo unknown type $type for $path in
$daemon_directory/postfix-files1>&2; exit 1;;
esac
[...]
And apparently the whole colon-separated line from postfix-files ends up
in $path instead of being split in the various variables.
Cheers,
