As this seems to be a different package than the one you are using 
elsewhere; have you verified the value of '$data_directory', to be sure 
you're looking for it in the right place?

In other words, does the output of 'postconf -d data_directory' yield 
'/var/lib/postfix' as a value?

If yes, does the user the process runs as have write permissions on 
that directory? Is there any difference in 'master.cf' settings for the 
'verify' process between the packages? Perhaps one is chrooted, the 
other one isn't?

Also, Postfix throws a warning in the logs if it can't write to a file, 
IIRC. Check there as well.
