Public bug reported: Binary package hint: sendmail
I realise that the issue has been described in other bugs (see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sendmail/+bug/43752/comments/6 ) but the other bugs are tracking other issues. Because the init files are not removed when the package is removed, the system hangs for 5 or so seconds every boot as it tries to start the sendmail MTA. I have tried this on two different Gutsy machines. Any questions, please ask. :/etc$ sudo find . -name "*sendmail*" ./logcheck/ignore.d.workstation/sendmail ./logcheck/ignore.d.server/sendmail ./logcheck/violations.ignore.d/logcheck-sendmail ./logcheck/ignore.d.paranoid/sendmail ./rc2.d/S21sendmail ./network/if-up.d/sendmail ./network/if-down.d/sendmail ./resolvconf/update-libc.d/sendmail ./rc6.d/K19sendmail ./ppp/ip-up.d/sendmail ./ppp/ip-down.d/sendmail ./rc4.d/S21sendmail ./cron.d/sendmail ./rc1.d/K19sendmail ./rc3.d/S21sendmail ./alternatives/sendmail.8.gz ./alternatives/sendmail-msp ./alternatives/sendmail-msp.8.gz ./alternatives/sendmail ./alternatives/sendmail-mta ./alternatives/sendmail-mta.8.gz ./alternatives/lib.sendmail ./cron.daily/sendmail ./mail/sendmail.conf ./mail/tls/sendmail-common.key ./mail/tls/sendmail-server.cfg ./mail/tls/sendmail-server.crt ./mail/tls/sendmail-client.crt ./mail/tls/sendmail-server.csr ./mail/tls/sendmail-common.prm ./mail/tls/sendmail-client.csr ./mail/tls/sendmail-client.cfg ./mail/sendmail.mc ./mail/sendmail.cf ./rc5.d/S21sendmail ./dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/sendmail ./rc0.d/K19sendmail ./init.d/sendmail ** Affects: sendmail (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [Gutsy] Sendmail doesn't remove init files on package removal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/165075 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
