Hi,
yesterday I was trying to get working buildin package manager in otrs
6.0.9-1~bpo9+1. I found two misleading information in README.Debian:

1) Wrong command line arguments used with otrs.SetPermissions.pl.
1a) There is no --otrs-group nor --web-user option available.
This was fixed in 6.0.11-1, thanx.

1b) Script doesn't expect path to OTRS installation folder.
However script doesn't report any errors (if directory is passed to the
command line) I think this should be fixed too.
This still remains incorrect in 6.0.11-1. 

2) Running otrs.SetPermissions.pl won't enable usage of buildin package
manager as advised in readme.
Script otrs.SetPermissions.pl refuses to follow symlinks (by design), so
content of directory /usr/share/otrs/var/ (pointing to /var/lib/otrs/) won't
get correct permissions. Therefore packages can't be correctly installed
from web interface (by www-data user). In my case, I had to change
permissions by hand on otrs/var/ tree.
Maybe providing patched version of otrs.SetPermissions.pl in Debian package
may solve this issue (I'm not familiar with perl, so I'm not able to provide
patch).

Best regards,
Radim
