If you talk about the /etc/default/fetchmail file the only problem I can think about is if you are updating from a 6.3.x version from unstable. There was a bug on the first versions that we uploaded, but since they didn't made it into testing we'll not provide an upgrade path to fix that unexpected bug, is unstable after all. > No I don't know how to better do this (maybe a more urgent message somewhere > in > the upgrade), so maybe you just have to ignore this. > It is defined no the NEWS file as stated by policy, and as I told I should have created the correct /etc/default/fetchmail file if you are upgrading from 6.2.x If I'm missing something, please let me know.
