Nothing defines “absolute”, for me it is (absolute) because:
- SYMPA provides a symlink to this third party package
- a daemon fail to start without this dependency
The text continued, describing how most uses would need recommended
packages.
Why did you cut out that elaboration?
My question is if it is *possible* to hand-tune.
Probably if you are enough skilled to understand the bug and fix it on
your own.
It requires the skill of either a) disabling S/MIME or b) changing the
cacert option to point to some folder containing CA certificates.
And yes, suppressing recommended packages is indeed an indication that
you are a skilled person.
You do not agree that the needed file is possible to create by other
means and with other content than installing that package?
This file should a be a bundle of root CA certificates,
According to Sympa web page it can instead be a directory containing CA
certificates.
And it can be undefined, meaning S/MIME is disabled.
AFAIR S/MIME is disabled by the default package installation. If not,
that is a bug :-).
