Hi,

here is the problem:

Setting up courier-base (0.61.2-1) ...
update-alternatives: error: alternative link /usr/share/man/man5/maildir.5.gz 
is already managed by maildir.5.gz.
dpkg: error processing courier-base (--configure):

Here is what this system has in /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/maildir.5.gz:

auto
/usr/share/man/man5/maildir.5.gz

/usr/share/man/man5/maildir.maildrop.5.gz
5

The same thing happens if you install maildrop on top of courier:

Setting up maildrop (2.0.4-3) ...
update-alternatives: renaming deliverquota link from /usr/bin/deliverquota to /usr/sbin/deliverquota. update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/lockmail.maildrop to provide /usr/bin/lockmail (lockmail) in auto mode. update-alternatives: error: alternative link /usr/share/man/man5/maildir.5.gz is already managed by maildir.5.
dpkg: error processing maildrop (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 maildrop
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Regards
