Package: postfix
Version: 2.11.2-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Tried to upgrade postfix this morning what resulted in broken system. Ran the 
postinst manually and got the following error.

Use of uninitialized value $action in string eq at /usr/share/debconf/frontend 
line 27.
postinst called with unknown argument `'

When I run it with the configure argument it runs fine what leads me to believe 
somethings not being passed to the postinst file on upgrade ?

dpkg runs the postinst, and passes configure.  Running postinst with no 
parameters is not a support action.

(What were you trying to accomplish by running the script manually?)
