Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
apt dist-upgrade
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
apt dist-upgrade
* What was the outcome of this action?
distupgrade went through, but when restaring the necceccary systemd.services
all went wel except fpr dovecot.service.
This is a long-standing bug. imap wont work after dist-upgrade unless you
reboot or you manually execute:
"systemctl stop dovecot.service"
"systemctl start dovecot.service"
So it is above all an annoying bug, as all other services get restarted without
error.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
"systemctl status dovecot.service" should work.
