Package: calendarserver
Version: 1.2.dfsg-6
Severity: important


When calendarserver installs, it creates /var/run/caldavd with user/group set to
root/root. When you use digest authentication for calendarserver (which is the
default) then calendarserver will need to write to var/run/caldavd in order to
create files that hold the temorary sqlite tables for 
/var/run/caldavd/digest.sqlite.

If that directory is not writeable, then calendarserver will run but you will 
not
be able to authenticate against it (rendering calendarserver pretty useless as 
a whole,
hence the "important" flag on this bug report).

Please make sure that the install script creates /var/run/caldavd with 
user/group
set to caldavd/caldavd

/var/run/caldavd has the correct permissions if you don't have a
statoverride for it, from the postinst:


        for dir in spool run log; do
            if ! dpkg-statoverride --list /var/$dir/caldavd >/dev/null 2>&1; 
then
                chown caldavd: /var/$dir/caldavd
            fi
        done

Cheerrs,
