[Pkg-citadel-devel] Bug#505715: citadel-server: stuck in postinst - citmail: command not found

[Bernd Zeimetz]

Package: citadel-server
Version: 7.37-6
Severity: serious

Hi!

While setting up citadel-server the postinst script hangs around line 63:

Setting up citadel-server (7.37-6) ...
applying your settings.
sendcommand: started (pid=16924) running in citadel
Attaching to server...
devel Citadel server ready.
Authenticated as an internal program.
CREU admin|
570 User accounts are not created within Citadel in host authentication mode.
sendcommand: processing ended.
postmaster,room_aide
Ignoring Alias postmaster as its already there
/var/lib/dpkg/info/citadel-server.postinst: line 63: citmail: command not found


Here the script is stuck and one citadel-server process is listed as defunct.
So I've stopped the script with ctrl+c...

dpkg: error processing citadel-server (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script killed by signal (Interrupt)


Cheers,

Bernd
