Bug#1112532: vdradmin-am: ConditionPathExists=/etc/vdradmin/vdradmind.conf was not met

[Jochen Pawletta]

Package: vdradmin-am
Version: 3.6.13-1
Severity: normal

Hello

I just upgraded from Debian 12 to 13.
Because of that the package "vdradmin-am" goes from 3.6.10-4.1 to 3.6.13-1.
But it does not work.

Here is the output of "systemctrl status vdradmin-am":
--------

--------

I don't know why but is searches for "/etc/vdradmin/vdradmin.conf".
I think this should be "/ect/vdradmin-am/vdradmin.conf"?

Please investigate.
Till then I reinstalled the oldstable version 3.6.10-4.1 which still works fine.
