Hello! At least since I mixed my slink system with potato packages (glibc 2.1) a couple of months before, I have a problem with /dev/null. Firstly, lprng reported at startup: "setuplog: open /dev/null failed: permission denied" (I "fixed" it by installing lpr which does not complain about it), and now since I installed exim correctly, I always get mails like this one:
