[Pkg-zope-developers] Bug#340543: zope2.8-sandbox: generates a password and tries to recreate the instance on upgrade

[Gustavo Noronha Silva]

Package: zope2.8-sandbox
Version: 2.8.4-1
Severity: important

While upgrading from 2.8.3 to 2.8.4 the sandbox package showed me
a debconf note with an auto-generated password.

Thing is I already had my instance setup when I first installed the
package; I set up a password and it is still working for my admin
user. I dismissed the note without taking note of the password by
mistake, so I cannot try it out.

Then, at postinst time I get:

Instalando zope2.8-sandbox (2.8.4-1) ...
Zope2.8 instance 'sandbox' already exists.

As expected.

Thanks,
