hi,

the debian package of usermin-webmail has a bug. It try to overwrite /usr/bin/webmin :

Unpacking usermin-webmail (1.823) over (1.820) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/usermin-webmail_1.823_all.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/webmin', which is also in package webmin 1.973
Usermin install complete. You can now login to https://test01.aquelia.net:20000/
as any user on the system.

the usermin package cannot be updated because of this.

best regards,
Ghislain.

    Apologies, we never updated the usermin-webmail package with this fix.

    Simplest solution is to install it directly with :

    wget https://download.webmin.com/devel/deb/usermin-webmail_1.823_all.deb
    dpkg --install usermin-webmail_1.823_all.deb

    This will be fixed in version 1.824 and above

      ok we will wait for that to be able to install usermin again on debian.

      thanks for your answers.
