Public bug reported: nmh's dependencies include recommended packages of mail-transport-agent and metamail.
However, metamail was deleted in Lucid with reason "(From Debian) RoQA; orphaned, missing upstream, buggy; Debian bug #274451". nmh's default config (in /etc/nmh/mhn.defaults) still causes it to try to invoke metamail for MIME messages. This obviously fails. To correct this, either metamail should be reintroduced or the default config file should be changed. ** Affects: nmh (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864581 Title: nmh recommends metamail, which is unavailable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nmh/+bug/864581/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
