Yes, I know.  ;)

I installed Kolab in a Debian Sarge. It worked OK but I wanted to install a 
new version. I didn't need to keep the data, I was really starting using 
Kolab.
I erased /kolab and installed the new version.

Unfortunallety I can't remember exactly which error happened, I think it was 
after installation, I couldn't start Kolab, some errors that I can't remember 
appeared in console.

Anyway, I erased /kolab again and deleted Kolab's users and groups.
After that I did exactly the same: install the Kolab. But now without 
problems.

I'm sorry because can't explain the problem, may be in the future I'll try 
again and relate it here.
