[Bug 640121] Re: package dovecot-imapd 1:1.2.9-1ubuntu6.1 failed to install/upgrade: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

[Scott Moser]

I'm fairly sure that dpkgTerminalLog.txt shows that this is not a
dependency issue, but rather failure of dovecot-common post-install
script:

Setting up dovecot-common (1:1.2.9-1ubuntu6.1) ...

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of dovecot-imapd:
 dovecot-imapd depends on dovecot-common (= 1:1.2.9-1ubuntu6.1); however:
  Package dovecot-common is not configured yet.
