In the logs:
Setting up postfix (2.6.5-3) ...
Adding group `postfix' (GID 122) ...
Done.
usermod: user 'postfix' does not exist in /etc/passwd
dpkg: error processing postfix (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 6
Strange, as there doesn't seem to be much room for failure in:
chown postfix private 2>/dev/null || adduser --system --home ${CHROOT}
--no-create-home --disabled-password --ingroup postfix postfix
usermod -g postfix postfix
Is this reproducible ?
