I can confirm this problem in Intrepid. Doing a full purge of amavisd- new doesn't remove the user amavis, hence causing the reinstall of amavisd-new to fail.
I can confirm the same problem in Hardy. ** Changed in: amavisd-new (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- amavisd-new broken user (again) Intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/311277 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to amavisd-new in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
