Public bug reported: Binary package hint: dkimproxy
The dkimproxy package states amavisd-new is a recommended (but not required) package: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp# grep amavis dkimproxy-1.0.1/debian/control Recommends: amavisd-new However, attempts to install this package automatically pull in amavisd- new: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp# apt-get install dkimproxy Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following extra packages will be installed: amavisd-new libarchive-zip-perl libconvert-binhex-perl libconvert-tnef-perl libconvert-uulib-perl libcrypt-openssl-bignum-perl libcrypt-openssl-rsa-perl libio-stringy-perl libmail-dkim-perl libmime-tools-perl libtext-wrapper-perl libunix-syslog-perl Suggested packages: clamav-daemon apt-listchanges libnet-ldap-perl dspam The following NEW packages will be installed: amavisd-new dkimproxy libarchive-zip-perl libconvert-binhex-perl libconvert-tnef-perl libconvert-uulib-perl libcrypt-openssl-bignum-perl libcrypt-openssl-rsa-perl libio-stringy-perl libmail-dkim-perl libmime-tools-perl libtext-wrapper-perl libunix-syslog-perl 0 upgraded, 13 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. 1 not fully installed or removed. Need to get 1655kB of archives. After this operation, 5337kB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? n Abort. I see no reason for this; dkimproxy should work fine on its own, and I have no desire to have amavisd on the system. Why is apt trying to force me to install a recommendation? ** Affects: dkimproxy (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- dkimproxy tries to install amavisd-new https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296074 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
