Robie any chance I could get you to sync krb5 1.17-2 from Debian unstable to disco? It's probably not a big deal but there's no reason not to take the fix into Disco.

I was working with this a bit testing the upgrade from wheezy to buster on the Debian side. Wheezy is the only Debian release that is vaguely extant where this could come up. In my testing, Debconf didn't actually remove the template on an upgrade. So, The two cases where I found that I could reproduce the situation Were: * remove krb5-admin-server on the old release and install it on the new release (without doing an upgrade) * Copy in a /etc/default/krb5-admin-server from another system. Neither of those seems serious enough to backport a fix for. I'd rather wait until we get a better understanding of how this gets triggered before doing any changes to xenial. I agree though that if we need to change any old release xenial is the only target. --Sam -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1817376 Title: krb5-admin-server postinst has broken debconf if RUN_KADMIND set in /etc/default/krb5-admin-server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krb5/+bug/1817376/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
