[Thorben Jändling]

Package will not install as follows:

# dpkg --configure -a
Setting up citadel-server (7.35-1) ...

Tried to get more information on what was wrong:

# sh -x /var/lib/dpkg/info/citadel-server.postinst
+ set -e
+ . /usr/share/debconf/confmodule
++ '[' '!' '' ']'
++ PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1
++ export PERL_DL_NONLAZY
++ '[' '' ']'
++ exec /usr/share/debconf/frontend /var/lib/dpkg/info/citadel-server.postinst
postinst called with unknown argument `'
