Package: gnupg
Version: 1.4.2-2
Severity: serious
Justification: no longer builds from source

gnupg has mail-transport-agent as a build dependancy without specifying
a desired one first as an alternative.  The sparc buildd randomly chose
zmailer which failed to install so the build failed.

I can't think of a good reason to require mail-transport-agent as a
build dependancy.  Building should not depend on being able to send
mail.

The file /etc/mailname should contain the domain- or hostname
visible on all outgoing mail and news messages. Currently,
that file isn't present. Please enter the mail name of your
