| SYSTEM INFORMATION | |

| OS type and version | DEBIAN 11 |
| Webmin version | 2.101 |
After upgrading Webmin and Usermin, we have new directories in root.
The .orig directories were also left in the root dir.
Now we have in the root dir:
/usermin-2.001
webmin-2.101
But the working files are in:
/var/usermin
/var/webmin
Is this normal?
Many thanks. J.
No, it is not normal. That sounds like you maybe did a tarball install (which you should never do on a system that has a package manager)?
Thanks for the quick reply.
Will delete them manually (after backup).
Yeah, that’s a problem in the package. @ilia, what’s going on here?
What Webmin version you were upgrading from? Also, what is the output of the following command on the system where you’re seeing this?
grep -Rsi webmin\. /etc/apt
I’d love to help to figure it out, although @Jamie does Webmin and Usermin packaging. I don’t see it happening with my nightly builds.
Oh, I thought this build was via your github action.
That’s new behavior, though.
Here’s the output:
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/webmin.list:deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/debian-webmin-developers.gpg] Index of /download/newkey/repository stable contrib
Not getting any other error messages. Have just deleted the extra directories – (.orig) too. All is working fine.
I see the issue now!
We will discuss it internally and fix the problem for the next Webmin 2.102.
That does sound like some kind of packaging error on our end. I will spin up a Debian 11 VM and see if I can re-produce this …
You can easily repro this by using setup-repos.sh script and/or installing a package from newkey/repository…
Ok I see the bug that causes this - future builds won’t have this issue.
