Package: postfix Version: 2.11.3-1 Severity: normal I've just run a tutorial on setting up Postfix. One thing that can be very confusing is the different path names for chrooted vs non-chrooted programs. To solve this the following 2 commands allow the same path names to be used by chrooted parts of Postfix as are used by non-chrooted daemons.
mkdir -p /var/spool/postfix/var/spool ln -s ../.. /var/spool/postfix/var/spool/postfix I think that it would be good to include this directory and sym-link in the Debian package. Then sysadmins won't have to worry about whether a Postfix service is chrooted or not as the same path will work. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages postfix depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii cpio 2.11+dfsg-4.1 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.57 ii dpkg 1.18.3 ii libc6 2.19-22 ii libdb5.3 5.3.28-11 ii libsasl2-2 2.1.26.dfsg1-14 ii libsqlite3-0 3.8.11.1-1 ii libssl1.0.0 1.0.2d-1 ii lsb-base 9.20150917 ii netbase 5.3 ii ssl-cert 1.0.37 Versions of packages postfix recommends: ii python 2.7.9-1 Versions of packages postfix suggests: ii bsd-mailx [mail-reader] 8.1.2-0.20150408cvs-1 pn dovecot-common <none> ii heirloom-mailx [mail-reader] 12.5-5 ii kmail [mail-reader] 4:4.14.10-2 ii libsasl2-modules 2.1.26.dfsg1-14 pn postfix-cdb <none> pn postfix-doc <none> pn postfix-ldap <none> pn postfix-mysql <none> pn postfix-pcre <none> pn postfix-pgsql <none> ii procmail 3.22-25 pn resolvconf <none> pn sasl2-bin <none> pn ufw <none> -- Configuration Files: /etc/network/if-up.d/postfix changed [not included] /etc/rsyslog.d/postfix.conf changed [not included] -- debconf information excluded
