Package: opensmtpd Version: 5.7.3p2-1~bpo8+1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
opensmtpd from jessie-backports failed to install on a fresh server at the "dpkg --configure" stage. I was able to track this down to a line in the postinstall script calling "ed" to modify "/etc/aliases". "ed" was not installed on the system and does not appear to be specified as a dependency of the opensmtpd package. Installing "ed" from the repos allowed me to install opensmtpd without errors. It seems necessary to either add a dependency on "ed" or modify the postinstall script to not use it. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
