Looking at this quite old bug, the problem seems to be that for some
reasons, the /run/sendsigs.omit.d/ directory was not yet created before
the postinst script was trying to symlink the pid file.
if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt "0.2.0-7"; then
if [ -f /lib/init/rw/sendsigs.omit.d/rpcbind ]; then
mv /lib/init/rw/sendsigs.omit.d/rpcbind
/run/rpcbind.pid
ln -s /run/rpcbind.pid /run/sendsigs.omit.d/rpcbind
fi
fi
Adding a mkdir just before the call to ln would have fixed this.
But now I guess this is too late, wheezy has been released with 0.2.0-8
so the code would only be executed during squeeze to wheezy upgrade, I
guess would could close it.
