The following reply was made to PR misc/103065; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Daniel Gerzo <danger@FreeBSD.org> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, erwin.vandevelde@gmail.com Cc: doc@freebsd.org Subject: Re: misc/103065: newaliases command of postfix overwritten Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2006 00:33:56 +0200 Hello bug-followup, >> Reinstall postfix. >> A better solution would be of course to ask the user during installation of the base system or not overwriting newaliases when postfix is installed. Requiring a full path specification of newaliases and putting it in different locations is also a possible solution. > The latter is what the ports system already does when installing > postfix. Unless you deliberately configured your system otherwise, > the postfix version of newaliases will go into /usr/local/bin/newaliases. Nobbut it's /usr/local/sbin/sendmail. Also users running postfix are supposed to add NO_SENDMAIL=yes to the /etc/make.conf file, I would say. Is there anyone else who think that this PR can be closed, as this "bug" is result of user's misconfiguration? -- Best regards, Daniel mailto:danger@FreeBSD.org
