Nominating for SRU: 
Package is uninstallable in Lucid and bug affects an application rather than critical infrastructure packages

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: slurm-llnl

  Installation failed with
  Setting up slurm-llnl-slurmdbd (2.1.0-1) ...
  chown: cannot access `/var/run/slurm-llnl': No such file or directory
  dpkg: error processing slurm-llnl-slurmdbd (--configure):
+  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
+ 
+ unable to install the package in Lucid
+ 
+ This is fixed in version 2.1.1-2 of the package by removing the chown
+ from postinst because it's done in the init script.

+ TEST CASE(lucid):
+ 1. Run the following command in a terminal
+ $ LANG=C apt-get install slurm-llnl-slurmdbd
