Public bug reported:

2011.3-0ubuntu4 introduced a change to the postinst to fixup permissions
for upgrades to ensure that files in /var/lib/nova with group ownership
of root or nogroup switched to nova

Unfortunately this does not take into account new installs - the
permissions on /var/lib/nova remain as root:root so the nova-manage db
sync command fails as the end of the postinst maintainer script.
