This is a generic error message. this is why the DIST is not replaced.
The bug above is a packaging problem from the redhat rpm. They forgot two
files
/usr/lib/linuxconf/redhat/mailconf.daemons
sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail -bd
smrsh /usr/sbin/smrsh
makemap /usr/bin/makemap
/usr/lib/linuxconf/redhat/dialout.daemons
chat /usr/sbin/chat
pppd /usr/sbin/pppd
diald /usr/sbin/diald
For sure upgrading to my 1.13r4 package cure the problem.
