Bug#436440: sasl2-bin: saslauthd can not start, if the last config-update is denied

[Daniel Baur]

Package: sasl2-bin
Version: 2.1.22.dfsg1-13
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

The last config-update added 'NAME="saslauthd"' to /etc/default/saslauthd.
If the root does not accept the changing to this configfile (because he had
of corse did changes in this file), saslauthd can't start because
/etc/init.d/saslauthd searches for this field. There is no warning at the
update, no logline in the syslog - nothing.
