[Bug 251433] Re: dpkg-reconfigure postfix partly broken

[Andrew Canuck]

I can confirm the same issue. In my case it was a fresh install of
postfix. Worked the first time, but I used Synaptic to completely remove
it including the conf files. I then reinstalled with Synaptic and it
would not let me get through the postinst. The error was related to the
"recipient delimiter", it would not accept any answer I gave it and I
had to abandon the install; it seemed to have gotten the text OK from
the button as opposed to the text typed in the input area.

I then tried from the command line using sudo apt-get install postfix.
again it hung on the same question, and would not accept any answer.
When I hit cancel in the  curses GUI it crashed the terminal window.  I
was able to install the package by selecting the configuration deferral
offered as the first choice on  the install.

dpkg-reconfigure postfix had the same issues after I got the package
installed. '


I was able to configure it mysellf by editing the conf files.

I just now tried a dpkg-reconfigure and it works fine... I guess that's
why its marked can't reproduce :o(
