Package: passwd
Version: 1:4.0.3-38
Severity: normal

Hi,

passwd purged. apt-get install passwd:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  passwd
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 55 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B/511kB of archives.
After unpacking 1544kB of additional disk space will be used.
Preconfiguring packages ...
(Reading database ... 17809 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking passwd (from .../passwd_1%3a4.0.3-38_i386.deb) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: line 33: shadowconfig: command not found
dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/passwd_1%3a4.0.3-38_i386.deb (--unpack):
 subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/passwd_1%3a4.0.3-38_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Judging from the dpkg manpage, preinst is executed before unpack. So
you cannot use programs from your package in preinst. Or at least, you
cannot fail if programs from your package ar not yet there.

Greetings
Marc

 .
   * Debian packaging fixes:
     - moved `shadowconfig on` from .preinst to .postinst
       Closes: #319138
     - debian/passwd.linda-overrides, debian/login.linda-overrides, debian/rules:
       Add file permissions overrides for linda similar to those we have for lintian
     - debian/login.lintian-overrides:
       No more file permission overrides for login
     - debian/passwd.config:
       let error messages from shadowconfig (and therefore underlying
       pwck/grpck tools which use stdout for this purpose) to reach stdout
       instead of getting into /dev/null. This helps error diagnostics and

   * Programs translation updates:
     - French completed.
   * Man pages translation updates:
     - 207_id-manpages: correct Indonesian manpages so that they do not
       fail lexgrog tests by linda

       fail lexgrog tests by linda
   * Debconf translation updates:
