Bug#803976: cyrus-common: /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/upgrade-db delete /var/lib/cyrus/db on upgrade from wheezy to jessie

[Agustin Eijo]

Package: cyrus-common
Version: 2.4.17+caldav~beta10-18
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I had the same problem I had when I upgraded from squeeze to wheezy and we had resolved at #706862 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=706862

The script /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/upgrade-db delete the directory /var/lib/cyrus/db 

The same solution works fine for me::

Replace:

   while read -r OLD_DBKEY OLD_DBVALUE ; do
        ...
   done < $OLD_LIST

for:

   cat $OLD_LIST | \
   while read -r OLD_DBKEY OLD_DBVALUE ; do
        ...
   done

This creates a new child process with diferent variables
