Package: postgresql-common
Version: 248
Followup-For: Bug #1010291
X-Debbugs-Cc: rvandegr...@debian.org
Control: tags -1 patch
After upgrading to bookworm, I was reminded of this bug when
/var/log/postgresql's sticky bit re-appeared. So I dug a bit more.
postgresql-common's postinst unconditionally changes owners and modes on
/var/log/postgresql. The patch below makes it respect dpkg-statoverride.
Thanks,
Ross
