Package: swaks Version: 20170101.0-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I have tried to use swaks in a Docker container (using debian:stretch as the base) and when trying to send a mail swaks was complaining about "bad protocol 'tcp'. With a bit of googling I found https://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.ldap/2005/10/msg1798.html, which indicated that this relies on /etc/protocols being present. After installing the netbase package I was able to send mail with swaks. I have not yet tried if the same can be experienced on debian:buster.
