Package: qmail-src
Version: 1.03-32
After compiling the package using the build-qmail command, installing
the resulting qmail_1.03-32_i386.deb over version 1.03-31 using dpkg
hangs:
# dpkg -i qmail_1.03-32_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 115677 files and directories currently
installed.)
Preparing to replace qmail 1.03-31 (using qmail_1.03-32_i386.deb) ...

If I press ^C to interrupt the system, I get:
Setting up qmail (1.03-32) ...
[hang]
^C
dpkg: error processing qmail (--install):

If I first remove qmail with dpkg --purge qmail, then the deb installs
with no problems.
If I repeat this a few times, the qmail install will sometimes
terminate with an error at preinst so that it never gets to hang at
postinst:
# dpkg -i qmail_1.03-32_i386.deb
