Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: postgrey

By default openlog and syslog do croak() if syslog is not available (because of 
a restart, for example). To make programs using
Sys::Syslog more robust, the 'nofatal' option has been implemented in 
Sys::Syslog. See bug #17316. 

The problem is that postgrey does no enable the nofatal option which
causes it to crash. Then, this also causes postfix to stop accepting
email.

The solution has been proposed to simply upgrade Net::Server to 0.94:

Considering dapper and edgy both use 0.90-1, it might be time for an
upgrade.

** Affects: postgrey (Ubuntu)
