Package: exim4-config Version: 4.69-9 Severity: normal
update-exim4.conf checks for DEBCONFsomethingDEBCONF recursivly, which would NORMALLY be good, but it should ignore *~ and *.dpkg-old files, it took me quite a while to find out what was going on. regards, Joachim Otahal "log" of how I fixed it: ---------------- gateway:/etc/exim4# update-exim4.conf DEBCONFsomethingDEBCONF found in exim configuration. This is most probably caused by you upgrading to exim4 4.67-3 or later without accepting the suggested conffile changes. Please read /usr/share/doc/exim4-config/NEWS.Debian.gz for 4.67-2 and 4.67-4 gateway:/etc/exim4# grep -lr 'DEBCONF.*DEBCONF' /etc/exim4 /etc/exim4/conf.d/rewrite/31_exim4-config_rewriting.dpkg-old /etc/exim4/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_remote_smtp_smarthost.dpkg-old /etc/exim4/conf.d/main/01_exim4-config_listmacrosdefs.dpkg-old /etc/exim4/conf.d/main/02_exim4-config_options.dpkg-old /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template.dpkg-old gateway:/etc/exim4# find . -name "*dpkg-old" -exec rm -f {} \; gateway:/etc/exim4# find . -name "*~" -exec rm -f {} \; gateway:/etc/exim4# grep -lr 'DEBCONF.*DEBCONF' /etc/exim4 /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf gateway:/etc/exim4# update-exim4.conf gateway:/etc/exim4# ----------------- -- Package-specific info: Exim version 4.63 #1 built 20-Jan-2007 10:40:39 Copyright (c) University of Cambridge 2006 Berkeley DB: Sleepycat Software: Berkeley DB 4.3.29: (September 6, 2005) Support for: crypteq iconv() IPv6 GnuTLS move_frozen_messages Lookups: lsearch wildlsearch nwildlsearch iplsearch cdb dbm dbmnz dsearch nis nis0 passwd Authenticators: cram_md5 plaintext Routers: accept dnslookup ipliteral manualroute queryprogram redirect Transports: appendfile/maildir/mailstore autoreply lmtp pipe smtp Fixed never_users: 0 Size of off_t: 8 Configuration file is /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.4 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages exim4-config depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy exim4-config recommends no packages. -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
