Package: exim4-config Version: 4.67-4 Severity: important

They must be configured using dpkg --configure or the configure menu option in dselect for them to work: exim4 meta-package to ease Exim MTA (v4) installation exim4-base support files for all Exim MTA (v4) packages The following packages are only half configured, probably due to problems configuring them the first time. The configuration should be retried using dpkg --configure <package> or the configure menu option in dselect: exim4-config configuration for the Exim MTA (v4) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg --configure exim4-base dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dpkg --configure exim4-base dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of exim4-base: exim4-base depends on exim4-config (>= 4.30) | exim4-config-2; however: Package exim4-config is not configured yet.
