dpkg: crash installing postfix
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Yo!
Installing postfix, dpkg crashes - no error msg. This leaves postfix in a
half-installed state.
Environment:
Corel Netwinder
kernel-image-2.4.19-netwinder 2.4.19-6
libc6 2.3.2.ds1-10.0.1
dpkg 1.10.18
I tried installing both postfix 2.0.16-4 and 1.1.11-0.woody3, which showed
the same symptoms.
strace (see below) doesn't tell me much because the crash happens after dpkg
fork()s:
Anything I can do here?
cheers

You're definitely on their list. The question to ask next is what list it is.
