them. While mailman3 itself is working, mailman3-web is

i wonder if a missing python3-systemd is the only reason for this bug:
fail2ban + sshd works fine with backend=auto for me, and i have recommends
installed.
So rather than changing the default 'backend', debian should just promote
python3-systemd to 'depends'.

Thanks for the correction; I was under the impression that this has
been more recent. I don't install my systems very often,
reinstall the system or
reformat by hand with all the data moving that entails.
The fact that we're stuck with this for a whole stable release cycle

Forgot to mention: I don't see this error on a similarly configured

possible the issue comes down to some difference in debconf itself.
