Package: xrdp Version: 0.4.1~dfsg-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch Symptoms: -------- Trying to upgrade xrdp: | Setting up xrdp (0.4.1~dfsg-1) ... | Installing new version of config file /etc/xrdp/startwm.sh ... | /bin/chown: cannot access `/var/run/xrdp': No such file or directory | dpkg: error processing xrdp (--configure): | subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Workaround: ---------- # mkdir -p /var/run/xrdp Root cause: ---------- /var/lib/dpkg/info/xrdp.postinst assumes /var/run/xrdp exists in all cases. This seems to be overly optimistic. A mkdir -p should fix it: diff -Nur xrdp-0.4.1~dfsg.old/debian/postinst xrdp-0.4.1~dfsg/debian/postinst --- xrdp-0.4.1~dfsg.old/debian/postinst 2009-09-27 12:14:52.000000000 +0200 +++ xrdp-0.4.1~dfsg/debian/postinst 2009-09-27 12:20:08.000000000 +0200 @@ -15,6 +15,7 @@ $CHOWN -R $XRDP:$XRDP /etc/xrdp touch /var/log/sesman.log $CHOWN -R $XRDP:$XRDP /var/log/sesman.log +mkdir -p /var/run/xrdp $CHOWN -R $XRDP:$XRDP /var/run/xrdp if [ "$1" = "configure" ]; then -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xrdp depends on: ii adduser 3.111 add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.9-26 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpam0g 1.1.0-4 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8k-5 SSL shared libraries Versions of packages xrdp recommends: ii vnc4server [vnc-server] 4.1.1+X4.3.0-32 Virtual network computing server s xrdp suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
