Just have a look at the attached dbmail.preinst file. I copied the code from the mysql-server preint file.
Currently i have no idea if there is some standard way, how to get that working for both ubuntu and debian in one dbmail.preinst file. It should not be so hard to detect ubuntu or debian. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- paul - 06-Oct-06 11:25 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Lars, what's wrong with the dbmail.preinst I use for debian? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- lkneschke - 06-Oct-06 12:38 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- it does not create a user with a id under 1000. See the parameter --system. And ubuntu is using adduser instead of useradd. The --system parameter is ubuntu specific.
