Package: sendmail-bin
Version: 8.15.2-14~deb10u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Given the following commands are run on a fresh buster install:

apt install sendmail
apt install postfix
apt autoremove --purge

When I try to install any package, e.g. apt install mutt
Then I get an error:

dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
 unknown system group 'smmsp' in statoverride file; the system group got removed
before the override, which is most probably a packaging bug, to recover you
can remove the override manually with dpkg-statoverride
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)

This error effectively blocks the installation of any further package.

When in this state, the package sendmail-bin is removed, but not purged.

The problem goes away after running the following command:

apt purge sendmail-bin
