John,

We have been unable to confirm your bug report and as there haven't been any 
confirmation reports I'm lowering the severity to important as this problem 
doesn't rendering it completely unusable to everyone.

Can you confirm you still have this issue with the latest release of 
asterisk-1.2.7.1.

Unless we can confirm these reports with moreinfo then we shall close the bug 
as unreproducible.

Thanks,
Mark

  I had this symlink:
 
  /var/lib/asterisk - /asterisk/lib
 
  It turns out that one of the asterisk maintainer scripts must be blowing
  away that symlink and then creating a directory at /var/lib/asterisk.
 
  This was responsible for the astdb appearing to disappear, and for the
  local sounds appearing to disappear.
 
  Your maintainer scripts need to not trample over symlinks like this.

 Sorry, but nothing in the postinstall is trampling as far as I can tell.
 There is adduser and usermod which *may* cause the problem, yet I
 couldn't reproduce it on my system. Further there is test -d ...||mkdir
 -p ... which as far as my testing goes did also not produce what you
 tell happened.

 Bottom line is, right now I cannot reproduce it. If you have any further
 info where this comes from, please feed us more info what is actually
 the lines that do need the fixing.
