[PKG-Openstack-devel] Bug#801088: rabbitmq-server: postinst fails with mkdir trying to create an existing /etc/rabbitmq directory

[Frederic Peters]

Package: rabbitmq-server
Version: 3.5.4-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

rabbitmq-server 3.5.4-2 fails to install,

  Setting up rabbitmq-server (3.5.4-2) ...
  mkdir: cannot create directory '/etc/rabbitmq': File exists
  dpkg: error processing package rabbitmq-server (--configure):
  ...

Quite simply there is a plain "mkdir /etc/rabbitmq" in rabbitmq-server.postinst
and it will thus fail as the directory already exists in case of upgrades.


Thanks for your work,

        Fred
