Public bug reported: Binary package hint: postgrey
On newly-installed Intrepid system from server iso, postgrey installs fine with aptitude but says this: [...] Setting up postgrey (1.31-2.1) ... Warning: The home dir /var/lib/postgrey you specified can't be accessed: No such file or directory Adding system user `postgrey' (UID 108) ... Adding new group `postgrey' (GID 119) ...

Press return to continue. And afterwards I see: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# ls -dlh /var/lib/postgrey drwx------ 2 postgrey postgrey 4.0K 2008-11-09 16:00 /var/lib/postgrey Details: 1) lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 8.10 Release: 8.10 2) apt-cache policy postgrey postgrey: Installed: 1.31-2.1 Candidate: 1.31-2.1 Version table: *** 1.31-2.1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/universe Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3) Expected clean install with no errors or warnings during setup. 4) Saw spurious warning about /var/lib/postgrey not existing and not being created (it gets created later in the postinst).
