Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: postfix
The default postfix conf in Debian git and also in
postfix_2.5.1-1ubuntu1.diff.gz includes the lines:
smtpd_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${queue_directory}/smtpd_scache
smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${queue_directory}/smtp_scache
Since Postfix 2.5, this causes the following errors in syslog:
Mar 26 23:08:13 yyy postfix/tlsmgr[8508]: warning: request to update table
btree:/var/spool/postfix/smtpd_scache in non-postfix directory
/var/spool/postfix
Mar 26 23:08:13 yyy postfix/tlsmgr[8508]: warning: redirecting the request to
postfix-owned data_directory /var/lib/postfix
Mar 26 23:08:13 yyy postfix/tlsmgr[8508]: warning: request to update table
btree:/var/spool/postfix/smtp_scache in non-postfix directory /var/spool/postfix
Mar 26 23:08:13 yyy postfix/tlsmgr[8508]: warning: redirecting the request to
postfix-owned data_directory /var/lib/postfix
This is an incompatibility noted at
http://www.postfix.org/TLS_README.html#client_tls_cache (and
correspondingly for server side cache) and http://high5.net/mirrors
/postfix-release/official/postfix-2.5.1.RELEASE_NOTES
Simply patching s/queue_directory/data_directory should fix this bug.
I'm running Hardy with:
$ apt-cache policy postfix
postfix:
Installed: 2.5.1-1ubuntu1
Candidate: 2.5.1-1ubuntu1
Version table:

Attached is a patch against the git upstream.
