Package: heirloom-mailx
Version: 12.5-3.1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
Debian Policy §11.6 states that:
Debian packages which process electronic mail, whether mail user
agents (MUAs) or mail transport agents (MTAs), must ensure that they
are compatible with the configuration decisions below. [...]
The mail spool is /var/mail and the interface to send a mail message
is /usr/sbin/sendmail (as per the FHS).
However, mailx only looks for sendmail at /usr/lib/sendmail, which
results in users being unable to send mail if their MTA only installs
sendmail at the location stipulated by policy.
The attached debdiff fixes this bug.
