Postinst hangs in Debian 11

[burmancomp]

System: Debian 11 (64-bit)
Amanda version: 3.5.2
GCC version: 10

Steps to reproduce:

./autogen
solving #184 for example by adding to CFLAGS in packaging/deb/rules "-fcommon"
packaging/deb/buildpkg
dpkg -i <built_package>

Result is that postinstallation hangs.

Working solution for me was to use /bin/bash instead of /bin/sh in postinst. I do not know how widely this solution would work.

Didn't see postinst hang here. Although installing the packages over the ones coming from the Debian repos wasn't fully working for me.

builds do not work for me currently

@burmancomp not a solution for the build issue, but maybe helpful:

https://www.zmanda.com/downloads/ now provides packages for Debian 11. I currently test these.
