Package: greylistd Version: 0.8.8.3 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts
Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install
(in 'wheezy'), remove (but not purge), distupgrade to 'jessie',
and install again.
Before the second installation the package is in config-files-remaining
state. The configuration is remaining from the last version that was
successfully configured - which is from the previous release.
Like a plain failure on initial install this makes the package too buggy
for a release, thus the severity.

dpkg: error processing package greylistd (--configure):

Errors were encountered while processing:
greylistd
The fix should be rather simple: the preinst script actions but be
performed on both "install" and "upgrade" (install will get a second
argument if the conffiles from an old version were remaining):
[...]
case "$1" in
install|upgrade)
[...]
cheers,
Andreas
