Re: [Bug 1709504] [NEW] Postfix Files that shouldn't be writable.
It was fixed in Debian later, but it's harmless. Because these are symlinks (which the script doesn't follow), the permissions it detects aren't the actual permissions. The 'fix' is not to emit the warnings for this. You can ignore them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1709504 Title: Postfix Files that shouldn't be writable.
