Hello,

I've used the following Slackware build script to create a Slackware
13.1 Postfix 2.7.1 package:

http://pastebin.com/cfDZJGXf

When I use the same script to build a 2.7.2 package, I get this error
when I try to start Postfix:

postsuper: fatal: scan_dir_push: open directory defer: Permission denied

Reverting to the 2.7.1 package (build using the same script),
everything just works.

When I install the 2.7.2 package, I can see that the
/var/spool/postfix directories are all owned
root:root, which is obviously wrong.

Running postfix set-permissions manually, I get this:

chown: cannot access `/usr/doc/postfix-2.7.1/README_FILES': No such
file or directory

What the?? Why is postfix set-permissions trying to fix a 2.7.1
directory, and what have I done to
bring this about?

I hope someone can help me clear up this issue, as I've stared myself
blind since yesterday, trying
to figure out what it is I'm doing wrong.

Regards,
Thomas
