Package: openvas-server
Version: 2.0.3-4.1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

Here is the exact error that occurred upon a fresh install:

[snip]
Setting up openvas-server (2.0.3-4.1) ...
dpkg: error processing openvas-server (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 10
Errors were encountered while processing:
 openvas-server
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I attempted to diagnose by running /var/lib/dpkg/info/openvas-server.postinst
manually, and through trial-and-error, came up with what I *think* is the cause,
as well as a manual work-around that finally allowed installation.

If my suspicion is correct, only users with a debconf priority of 'medium' (me)
or 'low' will be affected.  In openvas-server.config there are entries such as:

db_input low    openvasd/certificate
db_input medium openvasd/califetime

but in openvas-server.template there were entries like:

Template: openvas-server/certificate
Template: openvas-server/califetime

I ran:

sed -i s/-server/d/ openvas-server.templates

to yield:

Template: openvasd/certificate
Template: openvasd/califetime

and after:

apt-get -f install

the package installed sucessfully.


If my work-around will cause potentials in the future, please let me know!
