The LSB includes the "sendmail" command, which must be present. One way to provide this command is to install a full MTA, such as postfix. There are a few "light" mailers that also provide the sendmail command. I tend to use "ssmtp" on systems that don't need a full MTA. -- installing lsb requires postfix https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/141641 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
