Package: cyrus21-common
Version: 2.1.18-5.1
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***

After upgrading to cyrus 2.2, the old cyrus21-* packages are
automatically uninstalled. So far so good.

If you however purge the package cyrus21-common, the /var/run/cyrus
directory is deleted without confirmation. Thus the cyrus 2.2 mail
deliver system breaks:
[...] cyrus/deliver[16928]: connect(/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp) failed:
No such file or directory
[...] postfix/pipe[16927]: [...] status=deferred (temporary failure.
Command output: couldn't connect to lmtpd: No such file or directory_
421 4.3.0 deliver: couldn't connect to lmtpd_ )

If you restart cyrus2.2, it recreates the /var/run/cyrus directory and
it works again. But it is not necessarily noticed if you purge old
packages...

(There was however a question whether I wanted to delete all user data
and I said no. The /var/spool/cyrus directory was left and that part of
it was fine.)

This bug has been reported against an ancient version of cyrus
(cyrus-2.1) that is no longer supported. It is assumed to be fixed (or
no longer relevant) in newer releases and therefore I'm closing this
report now. If the problem is still reproducible in the current version
(cyrus-2.4), feel free to provide more information, reopen and reassign
this bug report to a current package.

Andreas
