This breaks on a fresh install of vivid.
Hal is no longer available on vivid, so the program does not work.
So no GUI to configure my IR receiver.
$ gnome-lirc-properties

I get the same problem with emacs, so it looks like this affects any
application using bitmap fonts.

It looks like dpkg --configure is broken for dovecot-common; I've been using
this successfully for some time, but after an update it fails to start up
saying that I already have ssl certificates (which I do; I've been using it
quite happily).
The package seems to be installed okay; it works fine
Also, apt-get clean/update didn't fix anything for me; the next upgrade
caused exactly the same message from dovecot-common (on Hardy Herron)
