Damn... sendmail (8.13.3-7) unstable; urgency=high * Depends netbase (>= 4.0.8) for submission closes: #295132 -- Richard A Nelson (Rick) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thu, 10 Feb 2005 19:02:00 -0000 That depend line is actually on sendmail-base: Depends: m4, make, adduser, netbase (>= 4.0.8), ${perl:Depends} > Versions of packages sendmail depends on: > ii rmail 8.13.4-1 MTA->UUCP remote mail handler > ii sendmail-base 8.13.4-1 powerful, efficient, and scalable > ii sendmail-bin 8.13.4-1 powerful, efficient, and scalable > ii sendmail-cf 8.13.4-1 powerful, efficient, and scalable > ii sensible-mda 8.13.4-1 Mail Delivery Agent wrapper So, how did you get sendmail-base installed, without also installing a more recent version of netbase ?
