OK.  I've pushed the fix to git, but I'm not 100% sure I know what lamont was 
after, so I'll leave it to him to review/upload once he's awake.

Looks like the change in [1] got lost somewhere.  Given the current layout:

/usr/lib/
...
/usr/lib/libpostfix-dns.so.1 -> libpostfix-dns.so.1.0.1
/usr/lib/libpostfix-dns.so.1.0.1
(which is the start of a list of file that amount to usr/lib/libpostfix-
*.so.1{.0.1})
...
/usr/lib/postfix/
...
/usr/lib/postfix/sbin/
/usr/lib/postfix/sbin/anvil
etc

I think what lamont was going for was:
shlib_directory=/usr/lib/postfix
daemon_directory=/usr/lib/postfix/sbin

So the install location for the libpostfix files needs updating and the 
daemon_directory value needs to be corrected.  I'll take a stab at it.

reopen 815047
thanks

The latest uploaded does not seem to fix the problem:

It does claim success despite the fatal message. Needless to say the system is 
down afterwards.
