OK, that's it, probably: *** Short version: After a dist-upgrade (please scroll down to see a list of packages concerned) minutes ago the problem seems being gone. No Seg faults. No sendmail crashes. Sendmail 8.14.1-4 seems to work fine. If you think this is right you might want to close the bug. I leave that up to you. *** Long version: The situation being cleared I suspect 2 causes for the previous crash: *** 1 A package that has been upgraded today simply was so damaged by some machine crash in the past that a reinstall of it helped getting 8.14.1-4 running. Ugly crashes on this machine happened. Not often, but if they do then even time occasionally is screwed to something like 1904 or so .. I'm on an Macintosh machine, and IINM this sort of crash is specific to at least this sort of hard ware. *** 2 I see libc6 has been upgraded. #1 was one reason, IIRC, why I waited some time to report the sendmail 'bug", simply because I hoped an upgrade (that is, some sort of reinstall) of another package might get things getting fixed. Here are some relevant files being present now while 8.14.1-4 is running - AFAIKS: successfully: /etc/mail/service.switch: -------------------------------- # /etc/mail/nsswitch.conf # # This is the format that sendmail expects (no colon after the service) # passwd files hosts files dns aliases files --------------------------------- /etc/nsswitch: ------------------------ # /etc/nsswitch.conf # # Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality. # If you have the `glibc-doc' and `info' packages installed, try: # `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file. passwd: compat group: compat shadow: compat hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4 networks: files protocols: db files services: db files ethers: db files rpc: db files netgroup: nis ------------------------- The packages installed/upgraded today: The list was created with a ls -lt -c /var/lib/dpkg/info/ | grep list | cut -c 32- | grep ^Jun\ \ 7 > update.txt ------------------------------- Jun 7 16:51 rmail.list Jun 7 16:51 sendmail-doc.list Jun 7 16:51 sendmail.list Jun 7 16:51 sensible-mda.list Jun 7 16:51 sendmail-bin.list Jun 7 16:51 sendmail-cf.list Jun 7 16:51 sendmail-base.list Jun 7 16:40 xserver-xorg-dev.list Jun 7 16:40 xserver-xorg-core.list Jun 7 16:40 texlive-font-utils.list Jun 7 16:40 xprint.list Jun 7 16:40 texlive-base-bin.list Jun 7 16:40 openoffice.org-help-en-us.list Jun 7 16:40 openoffice.org-filter-mobiledev.list Jun 7 16:40 openoffice.org-core.list Jun 7 16:40 openoffice.org.list Jun 7 16:40 ttf-opensymbol.list Jun 7 16:40 openoffice.org-filter-binfilter.list Jun 7 16:40 openoffice.org-math.list Jun 7 16:40 openoffice.org-base.list Jun 7 16:40 openoffice.org-java-common.list Jun 7 16:39 openoffice.org-common.list Jun 7 16:39 openoffice.org-style-andromeda.list Jun 7 16:39 openoffice.org-draw.list Jun 7 16:39 openoffice.org-impress.list Jun 7 16:39 openoffice.org-writer.list Jun 7 16:39 python-uno.list Jun 7 16:39 openoffice.org-calc.list Jun 7 16:39 nfs-kernel-server.list Jun 7 16:39 libxine1.list Jun 7 16:39 libwnck18.list Jun 7 16:39 libxcb-shape0.list Jun 7 16:39 libxcb-shm0.list Jun 7 16:39 libxcb-xv0.list Jun 7 16:39 libxcb1.list Jun 7 16:39 libxine-dev.list Jun 7 16:39 libswt-gtk-3.2-java.list Jun 7 16:39 libswt-gtk-3.2-jni.list Jun 7 16:39 libsdl1.2debian-alsa.list Jun 7 16:39 libsdl1.2debian.list Jun 7 16:39 libgstreamer0.10-0.list Jun 7 16:39 libkdcraw0.list Jun 7 16:39 libkpathsea4.list Jun 7 16:39 libfreebob0.list Jun 7 16:39 libgimp2.0.list Jun 7 16:39 libgnomevfs2-0.list Jun 7 16:39 libgpod1.list Jun 7 16:39 ksvg.list Jun 7 16:39 libao2.list Jun 7 16:39 libasyncns0.list Jun 7 16:39 kpdf.list Jun 7 16:39 ksnapshot.list Jun 7 16:39 kooka.list Jun 7 16:39 kghostview.list Jun 7 16:39 libkscan1.list Jun 7 16:39 kdegraphics-kfile-plugins.list Jun 7 16:39 libpoppler-qt1.list Jun 7 16:39 libpoppler1.list Jun 7 16:39 kamera.list Jun 7 16:39 libcairo2.list Jun 7 16:39 git-doc.list Jun 7 16:39 gitk.list Jun 7 16:39 git-core.list Jun 7 16:39 debhelper.list Jun 7 16:39 console-data.list Jun 7 16:39 antlr.list Jun 7 16:39 nfs-common.list Jun 7 16:39 mtr-tiny.list Jun 7 16:39 portmap.list Jun 7 16:39 locales.list Jun 7 16:39 file.list Jun 7 16:39 libdb4.5.list Jun 7 16:39 liblockfile1.list Jun 7 16:39 libmagic1.list Jun 7 16:39 dictionaries-common.list Jun 7 16:39 cpp-4.1.list Jun 7 16:39 gcc-4.1-base.list Jun 7 16:39 libmudflap0-dev.list Jun 7 16:39 g++-4.1.list Jun 7 16:39 gcc-4.1.list Jun 7 16:39 libstdc++6-4.1-dev.list Jun 7 16:39 nano.list Jun 7 16:39 laptop-detect.list Jun 7 16:39 libgnutls-dev.list Jun 7 16:39 libgnutls13.list Jun 7 16:39 libgnutlsxx13.list Jun 7 16:39 tzdata.list Jun 7 16:38 libc6.list Jun 7 16:38 libc6-dev.list Jun 7 16:38 findutils.list Jun 7 16:38 debianutils.list -------------------------------- Please let me know if you need additional information.
