Package: mailman
Version: 1:2.1.12-1
Severity: mailman
Upgrading to mailman 2.1.12-1 (the first version to stop shipping an actual
/var/lock/mailman directory in the package), the postinst emits the following
error:
Upgrading from version 0x2010bf0 to 0x2010cf0
getting rid of old source files
Updating mailing list: mylist
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/update", line 766, in <module>
errors = main()
File "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/update", line 656, in main
errors = errors + dolist(listname)

fp = open(self.__tmpfname, 'w')
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/var/lib/mailman/locks/mylist.lock.sanpietro.16648.0'
The missing locks directory will later be created by the init.d script, but
this is too late for the update invoked earlier in the postinst.
The postinst does not error out, however, see bug #513988.
