Hi, as co-maintainer for the exim4-packages, I have noticed an issue with dselect. Currently, exim4 is the default MTA, and exim4, exim4-base, exim4-config and exim4-daemon-light are Priority: important, while exim4-daemon-light provides mail-transport-agent. The exact package dependencies can be seen in the archive.
This causes dselect to install exim4-base and exim4-config on a system that has some other (non-exim) MTA installed, which is a bad thing. I have discussed this with Andreas, and we didn't find a solution, since the exim4-packages need to be installed and configured in a certain order to be operational. Both of us are not adept in package dependency declaration, so I would like to ask the experts how to solve this problem. Greetings Marc -- -------------------------------------- !!
