Well, you not experiencing problems avoiding Recommends do not really change the Debian definition of the Recommends: stanza: >`Recommends' > This declares a strong, but not absolute, dependency.Nothing defines “absolute”, for me it is (absolute) because: - SYMPA provides a symlink to this third party package - a daemon fail to start without this dependency
The text continued, describing how most uses would need recommended packages.
Why did you cut out that elaboration?
Probably if you are enough skilled to understand the bug and fix it on your own.My question is if it is *possible* to hand-tune.
It requires the skill of either a) disabling S/MIME or b) changing the cacert option to point to some folder containing CA certificates.
And yes, suppressing recommended packages is indeed an indication that you are a skilled person.
You do not agree that the needed file is possible to create by other means and with other content than installing that package?This file should a be a bundle of root CA certificates,
According to Sympa web page it can instead be a directory containing CA certificates.
And it can be undefined, meaning S/MIME is disabled. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
