This bug also happened to me during 'apt-get upgrade'
I killed the postinst script from another shell, let the upgrade
continue, and came back later.
I then ran apt-get install -f, which managed one round of update, then
stalled on a second one. After killing that one and running it a third
time, it didn't stall, and ran successfully to completion. I hadn't got
around to editing or investigating much during.
One thing I did notice was that the first time it failed, the process
with the zombie child was blocked on a read() of filedescriptor 8, which
was a pipe. I hadn't worked out where the other side is.
I think it is looking for one or both of:
ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/dovecot.pem
ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem
...which I'm guessing are not there. For the moment, comment out those
lines from /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf and apt-get -f install again.
If you are asked if you want to replace that file, say no.
