I've managed to build the latest (unstable) version of postfix on my Potato box (with some difficulty.) I now cannot install it:
mailhost:/home/gai/debbuild# dpkg -i postfix_0.0.20010502.SNAPSHOT-5_i386.deb (Reading database ... 20882 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace postfix 0.0.19991231pl11-1 (using postfix_0.0.20010502.SNAPSHOT-5_i386.deb) ... Stopping mail transport agent: Postfix.

That just leads to more problems, of course. Can anyone suggest what steps to take next? Thanks a _log_ for any help provided. Gai
