Since I upgraded yesterday from postfix-2.1.4 to postfix-2.1.5-r1 I have the problem, that all aliased addresses are bouncing with this error message:
Code:
Oct  9 11:49:10 ede postfix/local[4902]: B06123E31: to=<aaaaa@xxxxx.de>, relay=local, delay=0, status=bounced (possible alias database loop for aaaaa)

I didn't change /etc/mail/aliases, which worked before the postfix upgrade, and I am sure, there are no loops in there (even stripped it down to one alias besides the default ones).
I restarted postfix, and I did a newaliases.

/etc/postfix/master.cf is not changed from the original, and /etc/postfix/main.cf reads:
Code:
queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix
command_directory = /usr/sbin
daemon_directory = /usr/lib/postfix
mail_owner = postfix
myhostname = mail.xxxxx.de
mydomain = xxxxx.de
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, $mydomain, yyyyy.de, yyyyy.com, zzzzz.com, zzzzz.de
unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550
mynetworks = 10.10.10.0/24, 127.0.0.0/8
mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail

debug_peer_level = 2
debugger_command =
         PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
         xxgdb $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail
newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases
mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq
setgid_group = postdrop
html_directory = no
manpage_directory = /usr/share/man
sample_directory = /etc/postfix
readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-2.1.5-r1/readme
default_destination_concurrency_limit = 2
alias_database = hash:/etc/mail/aliases
local_destination_concurrency_limit = 2
alias_maps = hash:/etc/mail/aliases
home_mailbox = .maildir/
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtpd_sasl_local_domain =
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks, reject_unauth_destination

I hope someone has got an idea... I am a little desperate, because it's a production machine...

... finally it appeared as being a library related problem.
Code:
# emerge -uDe system
and afterwards postfix did its job again.

It looks like I have the same problem.
Has anybody seen this and knows a solution?
Thanks,

Matthias

Jepp, thanks. I've found this bug in bugzilla. I really utilize the hardened use flag. Compiling postfix with CFLAG="-Os" solves this problem.

Thank you,
Matthias

Now this is strange - prior my first post in this thread I used hardened together with -O2, and did not change this until today...
