Description Lars Heiermann 2003-02-09 05:30:59 UTC

post-install gets installed into /etc/postfix/, as it's a run-once script it
might be placed better in /usr/share/doc/postfix

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge postfix
2.
3.

I have updated postfix-2.0.3 in portage to put this file in the docdir.

Comment 2 Wayne Davison 2003-02-10 14:31:36 UTC

Please undo this change, it breaks postfix.  From the post-install comments:

#   At Postfix start-up time, the script is run from "postfix check" to
#   create missing queue directories.

Without this file, "postfix check" and "postfix start" FAIL.  I edited my
copy of the ebuild file to remove the line that moves this file, rebuilt
postfix, and now things are purring along nicely.  (This is a new install,
by the way -- anyone who upgraded from an earlier install probably wouldn't
have noticed this problem because they would have had an older version of
post-install in their /etc/posfix dir.)

i must not have tested right... i have backed out the change.
