-- debconf information:
* courier-webadmin/install-cgi: true
When installing (aptitude install courier-webadmin), the installation fails
with
the error "cp: cannot create regular file '/usr/lib/cgi-bin/courierwebadmin'"
No
such file or directory".
When I looked in /usr/lib, there was no "cgi-bin" directory. I manually created
that directory, and then re-ran the aptitude install, and that time
courier-webadmin installed without errors.
(I suspect I don't have something else installed or configured, related to
Apache CGI, but being new to mail setups, I'm giving you the info I have.)
