Description
I am trying to install packages from http://hasky.askmonty.org/archive/pack/5.5-hf/build-2791/kvm-deb-debian6-amd64/debs/binary/ on a fresh VM with Debian Squeeze and am getting the following error:
Unpacking mariadb-galera-server-5.5 (from .../mariadb-galera-server-5.5_5.5.28-mariadb1~squeeze_amd64.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing Downloads/repo-galera/binary/mariadb-galera-server-5.5_5.5.28-mariadb1~squeeze_amd64.deb (--unpack):

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
On the same machine, the standard mariadb-server installs normally. After mariadb-server was installed, installation of mariadb-galera-server also works.
As Kristian found out, it is somehow related to requesting a root password for the newly installed server, and buildbot does not show the problem because it uses a trick for unattended installation, see https://kb.askmonty.org/en/buildbot-setup-for-virtual-machines-general-principles/#myseed .
To reproduce,
- create a new VM machine, do not install mysql or mariadb or special buildbot tools;
- try to install mariadb-galera-server from a local repository.

As far as I could determine, the problem is that this script:
debian/mariadb-galera-server-5.5.config
fails during --unpack with exit code 10.
Maybe there is some pre-depends: dependency missing, but it's just a guess, I suspect the whole set of dependencies need to be looked through properly.
