Package: proftpd
Version: 1.3.1-13
Severity: grave

Hi,

I seem to have problems upgrading from proftpd 1.3.1-11 to proftpd-basic
1.3.1-13.

I first only installed proftpd-basic, which removed (but not purged)
proftpd.  At that point proftpd doesn't want to start anymore.  I don't
know why.  It didn't give an error message, just that I needed to check
the config file.

Then I tried to purge proftpd, which failed.  I think update-rc.d
complained that /etc/init.d/proftpd still exists or something like that.

So I tried installing profptd which got me the -mod packages I didn't
want, and then purged those since I didn't need them:
# apt-get remove --purge proftpd-mod-mysql proftpd-mod-pgsql proftpd-mod-ldap 
proftpd

After this operation, 1024kB disk space will be freed.

So I try to start it again:
# /etc/init.d/proftpd start
grep: /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf: No such file or directory
egrep: /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf: No such file or directory
egrep: /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf: No such file or directory
Starting ftp server: proftpd - Fatal: unable to read configuration file 
'/etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf': No such file or directory
 failed!


I restore my config files, and try to start it again:
# /etc/init.d/proftpd start
Starting ftp server: proftpd - Fatal: LoadModule: error loading module 
'mod_ldap.c': Permission denied on line 18 of '/etc/proftpd/modules.conf'
 failed!

I had to disable 5 modules.  As far as I know, I never enabled them.
And my modules.conf doesn't seem to be the same as the default one I
get on a new installation.  I don't get any prompt on upgrades that
something changed in it.


It's currently segfaulting when someone tries to connect.
