Package: postfixadmin
Version: 3.0.2-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
after installing Postfixadmin and configuring it with dbconfig-common, I
got the following error in my browser:
> DEBUG INFORMATION:
> MySQL 3.x / 4.0 functions not available! (php5-mysql installed?)
> database_type = 'mysql' in config.inc.php, are you using a different
> database?
It looks like "mysql" for $dbtype in /etc/postfixadmin/dbconfig.inc.php
is no longer supported at PHP 7.x. If changed to "mysqli" it works like
a charm.
I've written a small patch as workaround. Maybe there is a better
solution, I don't know. I'm not an expert for dbconfig-common :-)

This should be fixed for Stretch ASAP. Thanks.
