Package: monkeysphere
Version: 0.38-1
Severity: critical

As told, this breaks system upgrade, so setting to critical.

Today I found the following error in upgrade:
   monkeysphere (0.38-1) wird eingerichtet ...
   Failed running transition script /usr/share/monkeysphere/transitions/0.23
   dpkg: Fehler beim Bearbeiten des Paketes monkeysphere (--configure):
    Unterprozess installiertes post-installation-Skript gab den Fehlerwert 1 
zurück
   Fehler traten auf beim Bearbeiten von:
    monkeysphere

And no further upgrade is possible anymore.

I found the source for that. In monkeysphere-authentication setup it
tries to su to monkeysphere user. But looking into
/usr/share/monkeysphere/common, there is no "-s ..." specified in su. As
the user has no usable shell for security measurement, the upgrade
fails.

Simply adding "-s /bin/sh" here fixes the problem.

Note that this bug is maybe related to #778833 and #635711.
