reopen 770695 ! thanks Since 2014-11-28 I have been unable to continue an installation of dovecot on my up to date Sid amd64 system. The problem sounds identical to the previous posters here. I read through the bug log and I do not believe the problem has been fixed yet.
apt-get upgrade ... Setting up dovecot-core (1:2.2.13-7) ... Replacing config file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf with new version Starting IMAP/POP3 mail server: dovecot. ...hang...never returns... root 415 32407 0 15:16 pts/58 00:00:00 /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/share/debconf/frontend /var/lib/dpkg/info/dovecot-core.postinst configure 1:2.2.13-6 ... killing 415 allowed the apt-get install process to continue... This problem persists as recently as today when I had time to look into it further. If I try to reinstall the problem is recreated. The only way to break it free is to kill 12128 below so that the process will error.
