Hi on a fresh Install (i backported asterisk 1:1.4.3~dfsg-1 to etch) the asterisk user is still not created.
Problem is, the script /usr/share/asterisk/bin/asterisk_fix has no executable bit set and asterisk-config.postinst does check this: configure) if [ -x /usr/share/asterisk/bin/asterisk_fix ]; then /usr/share/asterisk/bin/asterisk_fix fi Depending on this bug the asterisk.postinst fails while starting asterisk cause of the not existing user (and group) As quick workaround the following works: chmod +x /usr/share/asterisk/bin/asterisk_fix dpkg-reconfigure asterisk-config And a chmod +x asterisk_fix in your source package and rebuilding it should fix the package.
