Thanks for correction. I should have said "DSFG compliant as binary package". $ apt-cache show qmail-src ... Description: Source only package for building qmail binary package qmail is a secure Secure, reliable, efficient, simple mail transport system. . Dan Bernstein (qmail's author) only gives permission for qmail to be distributed in source form, or binary for by approval. This package has been put together to allow people to easily build a qmail binary package for themselves, from source. . To build a binary deb package, first install the qmail-src package, then type the command "build-qmail". If you try "apt-get source --build qmail-src" it will most likely fail because the users do not exist. You MUST install the qmail-src package first. Also be sure to build and install ucspi-tcp before installing the binary qmail package. Install the ucspi-tcp-src package to get ucspi-tcp. . This package builds a binary .deb that is FHS compliant and conforms to the Debian standards guidelines. The resulting binary packages are not suitable for re-distribution. . There are pre-compiled binary packages for qmail available, but they do not conform to the Debian standards, and are not available in the official archive. -- ~\^o^/~~~ ~\^.^/~~~ ~\^*^/~~~ ~\^_^/~~~ ~\^+^/~~~ ~\^:^/~~~ ~\^v^/~~~ +++++ Osamu Aoki @ Cupertino CA USA See "Debian reference": http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ "Debian reference" Project at: http://qref.sf.net I welcome your constructive criticisms and corrections. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
