[Debian-ha-maintainers] Problems with pacemaker-openais

[Michael Schwartzkopff]

Hi,

when I install pacemaker-openais from people.debian.org/~madkiss/ha onto a 
fresh debian lenny I get the following error during configuration the the 
package:

(...)
Adding system user `haclient' (UID 102) ...
Adding new user `haclient' (UID 102) with group `hacluster' ...
The home directory `/var/lib/heartbeat' already exists.  Not copying from 
`/etc/skel'.
adduser: Warning: The home directory `/var/lib/heartbeat' does not belong to 
the user you are currently creating.
mkdir: cannot create directory `/var/run/heartbeat/crm': No such file or 
directory
dpkg: error processing pacemaker-openais (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Leaving a unconfigured package on the system:

# dpkg -l | grep pacem
iF  pacemaker-openais               1.0.4.1+hg20090606-1~bpo50+1 HA cluster 
resource manager for OpenAIS

I had to add manually
groupadd haclient
useradd hacluster -g haclient
mkdir -r /var/run/heartbeat/crm
chown hacluster.haclient /var/run/heartbeat/crm

to run a successful apt-get install pacemaker-openais


Please could you recheck your install script to avoid these errors. Thank you 
very much.
