Package: postfix
Version: 2.5.5-1.1
Severity: critical
Tags: patch
Justification: breaks unrelated software

After upgrade, postfix stops works. Into the mail.err I see:

postfix/smtp[18285]: fatal: unknown service: smtp/tcp

and on mail.info:

postfix/smtp[18149]: fatal: unknown service: smtp/tcp
postfix/master[18118]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtp pid 18147 exit 
status 1
postfix/master[18118]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtp: bad command startup -- 
throttling
postfix/qmgr[18144]: warning: private/smtp socket: malformed response
postfix/qmgr[18144]: warning: transport smtp failure -- see a previous 
warning/fatal/panic logfile record for the problem description

And after a lot of tests, I discover that that was a permission problem:
ll /var/spool/postfix | grep etc
drwx--x---  2 root    sasl       4096 2009-04-18 10:27 etc
so a 
chmod 755 /var/spool/postfix/etc
did the trick and now all works!

Hope that can help to someone other!
