Package: bacula-director-sqlite3
Version: 15.0.3-3
Severity: serious
Hi,
The following fails:
- In bookworm, install bacula-director-sqlite3
- dist-upgrade to trixie
MWE:
PKG=bacula-director-sqlite3; mmdebstrap --chrooted-customize-hook="set -x ; apt
-y install $PKG && sed -e s/bookworm/trixie/ -i /etc/apt/sources.list && apt
update && apt dist-upgrade -y -o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=true" bookworm
/dev/null
The error is:

> dpkg: error processing archive

/var/lib/dpkg/info/bacula-common.postinst has:

I wonder if it would help to have bacula-common Depend on Pre-Depend on
systemd to help apt decide to configure it before call systemd-tmpfiles
in postinst.
