Bug#739318: cyrus-imapd-2.4: Cyrus IMAPd fails to install/start

[Gábor Gombás]

Package: cyrus-common
Version: 2.4.17+caldav~beta9-2
Followup-For: Bug #739318

The bug is in /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/init-helper. It contains this code
(abbreviated):

case "$1" in
    start)
[...]
        [ -d "$PROC_DIR" ] && find "$PROC_DIR" -mindepth 1 -depth -name '[0-9]*' -delete
        ;;
    *)
        ;;
esac

If $PROC_DIR points to /run, and /run/cyrus/proc does not exist (which
is the common case, since /run is tmpfs), then the above code snippet
causes the script to return with exit code 1, since that's the return
value of the command executed last. That in turn causes
/etc/init.d/cyrus-imapd to fail.

Adding an "exit 0" at the end of init-helper would fix the issue.
