[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#732357: check-mk-config-icinga.postinst fails on upgrade

[Matt Taggart]

Hi Thomas,

RE: #732357...

The check:

[ -d /etc/apache2/conf.d/ ] && [ ! -L /etc/apache2/conf.d/$CONF.conf ]
   && ln -s ../conf-available/$CONF.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/$CONF.conf

is actually checking to make sure it's _not_ a symlink already, and then it 
tries to create the symlink. But if it already exists as a file, this fails 
poorly.
Maybe yours was a file and not a symlink? That's what I saw too.

Older versions of check-mk (1.1.12p7-1 at least) did deliver that as an 
actual file, so it's likely most people upgrading from older releases would 
hit this.

I will figure out a way for the package to deal with it.
