It occured a second time last week after I did an update using the update manager. I had to manually edit dialup.m4 once again.
The bug is in sendmail-8.13.8/debian/local/dynamic.in in the find_host() function called by update_host(). I guess $(host $SM_ip) simply fails. This is a serious flaw as it breaks mail delivery. This box is on a fixed LAN with two resolvers properly configured (1 being on the same LAN). This is not a dialup box depending on an ISP. Those two DNS servers are perfectly fine. So either it's caused by another package (Avahi ? NetworkManager ?) or by something else being upgraded at the same time. -- [feisty] sendmail unable to automatically determine domain name https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/99459 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
