Any script can now basically just run (as root on new installs where unix_socket auth is on) something like $ mysql -u root -e "CREATE user.." and equivalent GRANT with database names, hostnames etc. They all depend on the scenario. Therefor I am not sure if it makes sense to add some dpkg-hooks for that. If there was an old scenario that stopped working, maybe for backwards compatiblity if would be justified to support at least that. But I did not yet find the instructions on how what to run and how to "reproduce" a failing situation that we could start tinkering with. Will I see the failure if I run 'apt-get install zarafa', is that where you stumbled across this issue in the first place?
