Hi again,

this is even funnier. On the machine, I have:

# fgrep Value: /var/cache/debconf/passwords.dat                                 
                            
Value: 
Value: 
Value: 
Value: 
Value: 

So apparently, it lost *all* password information.

# ls -l /etc/redmine/                                                           
                            
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data 4096 Dec 12 17:36 default

In /etc/redmine/default/database.yml there _is_ set a
password, but apparently not the correct one.

And finally: when I wrote the bugreport, *after* the
upgrade that failed to configure, Redmine was still
running, until I restarted Apache, now it 500s, which
is pretty much expected, so the database.yml *was*
changed and it had an older, nonzero, value that
actually worked.

Approximate order in which I did things:

apt-get install redmine redmine-pgsql
[ config fails due to missing postgresql server ]
apt-get install postgresql
[ redmine asks for half(!) the config values again ]
[ redmine works ]
apt-get --purge dist-upgrade
[ redmine asks for nothing but fails to upgrade ]

bye,
//mirabilos
