[Bug 348990] [NEW] Deinstallation doesn't delete all files

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Andreas Olsson (andol):

Binary package hint: postfix

On purge/delete, postfix package leaves /var/lib/postfix behind. In this
directory file master.lock is owned by postfix's UID. When removed,
postfix leaves this file and directory. If some other system user is
created after that and postfix is reinstalled then, postfix won't start
(master.lock will be owned by that other system user).

Anyway, package should remove all its files on purge.

** Affects: postfix (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed
