Package: postfix
Version: 3.11.2-2
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I upgraded postfix to 3.11.2-2 from 3.11.0-4, removing postfix-cdb and postfix-
lmdb along the way as they are now marked transitional and suitable for
removal.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
my main.cf (attached) references several LMDB stores, following recent
conversion to move away from BerkeleyDB. I updated postfix with apt:
[REMOVE, NOT USED] postfix-cdb:amd64 3.11.0-4
[REMOVE, NOT USED] postfix-lmdb:amd64 3.11.0-4
[UPGRADE] postfix:amd64 3.11.0-4 -> 3.11.2-2
[UPGRADE] postfix-sqlite:amd64 3.11.0-4 -> 3.11.2-2
* What was the outcome of this action?
I now see in my logs eg:
May 05 13:14:59 schwarzgerat fetchmail[7140]: SMTP error: 451 4.3.0
<dank@localhost>: Temporary lookup failure
May 05 13:14:59 schwarzgerat fetchmail[7140]: May 05 13:14:59 fetchmail:
reading message [email protected]:3 of 3 (1775 header oct...
and running `newaliases` yields:
[schwarzgerat](0) $ sudo newaliases
postalias: warning: unsupported dictionary type: lmdb. Is the postfix-lmdb
package installed?
postalias: fatal: unsupported map type: lmdb
[schwarzgerat](1) $
* What outcome did you expect instead?
For my mail to continue being delivered; for alias files to be properly
regenerated.

Closes: 1135765
Changes:
postfix (3.11.2-4) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* move meta_directory from /etc/postfix to /usr/share/postfix.
.
All files in meta_directory, except main.cf.proto and master.cf.proto,
are not config files, - these are static files which describes the
installation (postfix-files, dynamicmaps.cf, makedefs.out, etc).
These don't belong in /etc really.
.
The *.cf.proto files are config files, - templates for main.cf
and master.cf files for secondary instances, which the user might
want to customise before deploying new instances. So these actually
belong to /etc/postfix/. For these 2, create symlinks from
/usr/share/postfix/*.cf.proto to corresponding files /etc/postfix/.
.
For dynamicmaps.cf, split it into dynamicmaps.cf.d/$map.cf, so
there's no need to register them dynamically in dynamicmaps.cf
at install/remove time, anymore. This Closes: #1135765 for good.
.
Remove /etc/postfix/postfix-files &Co the dpkg remove-on-upgrade way.
.
The file /usr/share/postfix/postinst.functions becomes dummy with
just 3 empty functions in it, keep it for upgrades from old versions.
.
* postfix-script-skip-symlinks.patch: avoid complaining about symlinks
in certain postfix dirs being world or other writable
* postfix.postinst: comment-out meta_directory setting in main.cf if set
* postfix.postinst: also rm dynamicmaps.cf on upgrades
* stop shipping postfix-collate, postfix-add-policy, postfix-add-filter.
Let's see if anyone complains...
* postfix.postrm: stop rm -rf'ing /etc/postfix on purge
