Interesting. I'm still unable to reproduce this. What's the complete
set of dovecot-* binary packages that you have installed? Have you
encountered any instances of this error after completion of the upgrade?
Upgrading from 1:2.4.4+dfsg1-2 to 1:2.4.5+dfsg1-2 looks like this for
me:
noahm@dovecot-test:/etc/dovecot$ apt policy dovecot-imapd
dovecot-imapd:
Installed: 1:2.4.4+dfsg1-2
Candidate: 1:2.4.5+dfsg1-2
Version table:
1:2.4.5+dfsg1-2 500
500 mirror+file:/etc/apt/mirrors/debian.list sid/main amd64 Packages
*** 1:2.4.4+dfsg1-2 100
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
noahm@dovecot-test:/etc/dovecot$ sudo apt install dovecot-imapd
The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
libxapian30
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove it.
Upgrading:
dovecot-core dovecot-dev dovecot-imapd dovecot-lmtpd dovecot-pop3d
dovecot-sieve libpcre2-32-0 libpcre2-8-0
