Hi Nathaniel,
sorry this took so long, I must have lost track of this :-/
The crash is a memory dump of the program and therefore could contain passwords.
Although you can upload just the stacktrace of it - not sure it helps thou.
To do so look at [1].
[1]:
I had already tried removing the /var/lib/exim4 dir and it was a no go.
I see exim4-config.0.crash in /var/crash. Would that be helpful to
upload. Would it contain passwords?

Since you already worked through getting it purged I wonder if some of
things left, like /var/lib/exim4 would have to be removed to let the
autogeneration work properly on next install.

And that's only because it says virtbroken, I have no idea what that
word means.

Title:
Dpkg fails to reinstall
Hi Nathaniel,
yeah -a lso maybe the username is a red herring and the configfile is the
actual issue.
You can follow [1] a bit.
And also consider the env vars of dpkd-maintscript-helper and dpkg.
So in your case likely something like:
DPKG_DEBUG=1 DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_DEBUG=1 dpkg -i
ChristianEhrhardt (paelzer) I looked at exim4-config.postinst.
Only thing I could see was;
if [ "$1" = "configure" ] &&\
! getent passwd Debian-exim > /dev/null ; then
echo 'Adding system-user for exim (v4)' 1>&2
adduser --system --group --quiet --home /var/spool/exim4 \
Hmm, the user is intentionally note removed since [1].
But on config there is a check like:
! getent passwd Debian-exim
adduser ...
Now getent doesn't complain the way the error message looks like.
Also if it would be it would create the user.
This matches that you still have the users in
I just apt remove exim4
then I apt install exim4
Got error as noted above
Then apt purge exim4 and got error

How did you remove or reinstall exim the first time? Trying to figure
out how to reproduce this.
Also do /etc/passwd and /etc/group have entries for Debian-exim?
