Package: rpcbind Version: 1.2.6-4 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Hi, since the d/postinst file has been removed, on a fresh VM rpcbind can no longer be installed: --------------8<-------------- root@kvmsid:~# apt install rpcbind Reading package lists...

Could not execute systemctl: at /usr/bin/deb-systemd-invoke line 145. -------------->8-------------- Executing the adduser command from the former postinst script manually and running `dpkg --configure -a` fixed the problem. Even though the migration path from postinst might be obsolete, creating the _rpc user isn't. Thanks, Daniel
