--- Begin Message ---Package: courier-mta Version: 1.0.16-2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable On current debian bullseye, courier-mta is not startable, looks like some kind of problem in init scripts (but could be executables/environment), as per system info and console log below. Even with all courier packages purged, /etc/courier /???/lib/courier directories completely removed, and start from scratch, installation of courier-base is OK but installing courier-mta consistently fails. This is reproducible on a buster system upgraded to bullseye (i386 and sysvinit-core and no usrmerge) e.g.:- ==================================================================================== Preconfiguring packages ... Selecting previously unselected package courier-mta. (Reading database ... 42620 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack .../courier-mta_1.0.14-2_i386.deb ...

Errors were encountered while processing: courier-mta E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) ==================================================================================== ALSO (though not quite the same) on a current debian amd64 bullseye chroot (not upgraded) systemd-based host system as well. In that circumstance you get various "Running in chroot, ignoring request." messages for start (which otherwise passes even if mta may not be started), but similar error shows up upon trying to remove/purge courier-mta instead, with error:- ==================================================================================== Removing courier-mta (1.0.14-2) ... Running in chroot, ignoring request. Stopping Courier MSA server: esmtpd-msa. invoke-rc.d: initscript courier-msa, action "stop" failed. dpkg: error processing package courier-mta (--remove): installed courier-mta package pre-removal script subprocess returned error exit status 1 dpkg: too many errors, stopping locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory Running in chroot, ignoring request. Running in chroot, ignoring request. Running in chroot, ignoring request. Running in chroot, ignoring request. Running in chroot, ignoring request. Errors were encountered while processing: courier-mta Processing was halted because there were too many errors. ==================================================================================== System info below is from trying the sid/second version (just the courier packages) but exactly the same failure happens either way. This clearly needs looking at for bullseye release. **NB** Have discovered that, at least for the case of new-installing courier-mta 1.0.16-2, adding "exit 0" on the end of /etc/init.d/courier-msa *seems* to be sufficient to allow dpkg configure to work, and courier-mta then seems to start okay. I have considered the non-systemd and non-usrmerge (mkdir path) bugs I could find for courier-mta but these don't seem to apply to this circumstance. This clearly makes the package unusable on bullseye and needs looking at for release. Lots of courier-mta users will be "upgrade" case, I strongly suspect, so working for upgrade cases in older configs is especially important! --Simon -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-14-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages courier-mta depends on: ii courier-authlib 0.71.1-1 ii courier-base 1.0.16-2 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.74 ii libc6 2.31-9 ii libcourier-unicode4 2.1.2-2 ii libgcc-s1 10.2.1-6 ii libgdbm6 1.19-2 ii libidn11 1.33-3 ii libnet-cidr-perl 0.20-1 ii libperl5.32 5.32.1-2 ii libstdc++6 10.2.1-6 ii perl 5.32.1-2 ii sysvinit-utils 2.96-6 ii wget 1.21-1 courier-mta recommends no packages.

Closes: #984696. * Mark all autopkgtests as superficial. * Make the postinst script for courier-mta and courier-imap a bit more resilient by deferring the generation of smtpaccess.dat and imapaccess.dat, as this might otherwise cause the installation to fail.
