Package: cyrus-imapd-2.2
Version: 2.2.13-13
Severity: important
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
After having installed cyrus-imapd-2.2, I discovered that the imapd server was
unable to run because the permission beneath its administrative
directory /var/lib/cyrus was not correctly assigned:
ls -la /var/lib/cyrus/
total 11
drwxr-x--- 10 cyrus mail 312 2007-09-16 16:03 .
drwxr-xr-x 60 root root 1560 2007-09-16 16:02 ..
-rw------- 1 cyrus mail 144 2007-09-16 16:03 annotations.db
drwx------ 2 root root 48 2007-09-16 16:02 db
drwx------ 2 cyrus mail 112 2007-09-16 16:03 db.backup1

-rw------- 1 cyrus mail 144 2007-09-16 16:03 mailboxes.db
drwx------ 2 root root 48 2007-09-16 16:02 msg
drwx------ 2 root root 48 2007-09-16 16:02 proc

drwx------ 28 root root 672 2007-09-16 16:02 user
All the directories belong to root whereas cyrmaster is running as cyrus !
Here is the kind of errors, I have in my syslog:

Changing recursively the permissions to cyrus.mail for /var/lib/cyrus
and /var/spool/cyrus seems to solve the problem.
