No offense taken. It just is a recurring problem with Linux distros
that turn on chroot without providing the necessary files to make
things like mysql work properly. Postfix 3.0 makes it harder to
turn on chroot; hopefully that will end these problems.

Except that the mysql support won't work unless you do one
of the following:
a) you turn off chroot in Postfix.
b) you add some files under /var/spool/postfix, the details of which
change with the distribution and version, and which are discovered
by stracing programs until all errors are accounted for.
