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 Reading package lists...

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.
