I am running postfix via the Debian package in Sid.

I get the following message during installation or with postfix check:

postfix/usr/lib/postfix/post-install: line 493: test: too many arguments
/usr/lib/postfix/post-install: line 493: test: too many arguments
/usr/lib/postfix/post-install: line 493: test: too many arguments
/usr/lib/postfix/post-install: line 493: test: too many arguments

But postfix still runs normally.

I commented out the following lines in /usr/lib/postfix/post-install
which seem to refer to Solaris:

         # Flag obsolete objects. XXX Solaris 2..9 does not have "test -e".
        if [ -n "$obsolete_flag" ]
        then
            test -r $path -a "$type" != "d" && obsolete="$obsolete $path"
            continue;
        else
            keep_list="$keep_list $path"
        fi

This removes the error  and there don't seem to be any adverse effects
so far. Can anyone shed light on this please?
