[Bug 1305232] Re: Postfix fails to start, "failure to copy certificates"

Multiple notes on this for the SRU Team: 1. the trusty fix was accepted by Brian about a month ago, but back then it failed to build. Reason: it had issues on the new kernel in the build env. Currently 2.11.0-1ubuntu1.2 [1] is in proposed for that which looks good. IMHO that could have

I've pushed the fix to git for the Debian postfix package. This will be in the next Debian upload that will get sync'ed into the Ubuntu development release. Someone who is involved in Ubuntu will need to work on a stable update after that happens if you want the fix in an earlier release. **
