Hello, during validation of validation of msec/sectool update candidates, a problem showed up: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1621 Seems mailx (on behalf of msec) can't send mails to local user accounts due to missing sendmail, citing one of the comments:
https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2255#c25 But sendmail (or alternative) is required for local delivery. Try it out for yourself $ mailx -v -s "test mail" root EOT /usr/lib/sendmail: No such file or directory "/home/derek/dead.letter" 9/214 . . . message not sent. This results in msec reports ending as /dead.letter and never being sent to the user who was specified in msec configuraion or during initial installation of Mageia. So i added a require on sendmail to msec. But sendmail conflicts with vacation, and more importantly with postfix. So how to solve this mess? Do we want the reports to not be sent to some local user account, we can leave it like it is and i'll remove the require on sendmail. But if we want security reports to be sent to local users if they specify so, how to proceed further?
