Package: sympa Followup-For: Bug #466530 FYI, it seems that installing with aptitude on my system leads to that situation.
If I manually fo something like LANG=C dpkg -i sympa*.deb or LANG=C dpkg-reconfigure sympa, it will work much better. This is because I have no need to use a password for the root/postgres user which will try and create the postgresql sympa user, but having a different locale leads to testing db_authtype with wrong resuls, hence not passing the -i option to install-pg-db :( Hope this helps. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-vserver-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages sympa depends on: ii adduser 3.105 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.19 Debian configuration management sy ii exim4-daemon-light [mail-tran 4.69-2 lightweight Exim MTA (v4) daemon pn libarchive-zip-perl <none> (no description available) ii libc6 2.7-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries pn libcgi-fast-perl <none> (no description available) pn libcrypt-ciphersaber-perl <none> (no description available) ii libdbd-mysql-perl 4.006-1 A Perl5 database interface to the ii libdbi-perl 1.601-1 Perl5 database interface by Tim Bu ii libfcgi-perl 0.67-2 FastCGI Perl module ii libintl-perl 1.16-4 Uniforum message translations syst ii libio-stringy-perl 2.110-3 Perl5 modules for IO from scalars ii libmailtools-perl 1.77-1 Manipulate email in perl programs pn libmd5-perl <none> (no description available) ii libmime-perl 5.425-2 transitional dummy package ii libmime-tools-perl [libmime-p 5.425-2 Perl5 modules for MIME-compliant m pn libmsgcat-perl <none> (no description available) pn libnet-ldap-perl <none> (no description available) pn libtemplate-perl <none> (no description available) ii libxml-libxml-perl 1.63-1.1 Perl module for using the GNOME li pn mhonarc <none> (no description available) ii perl [libmime-base64-perl] 5.8.8-12 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction pn perl-suid <none> (no description available) ii sysklogd [system-log-daemon] 1.5-1.1 System Logging Daemon Versions of packages sympa recommends: ii doc-base 0.8.9 utilities to manage online documen ii logrotate 3.7.1-3 Log rotation utility -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
