Yep, but only in the Fedora Extras buildsystem, which uses mock to build in a
minimal buildroot.  It build fine with mock on my own workstation.

For now I'm just skipping send.sh for Fedora Extras.

Ah, I think I know what it is.  Darcs requires that /usr/sbin/sendmail be
present (during configure) in order to hard-code the path to the binary
that will be used for sending email. You can get around this by specifying

./configure --with-sendmail=/usr/sbin/sendmail

when configuring.  If darcs has no idea where to locate sendmail, the
email-sending capability is turned off--even if --with-sendmail is passed
to darcs on the command line. The debian build scripts have a mailer as a
build-dependency (which is indeed a nasty hack).

Another approach would just to be to hard-code /usr/sbin/sendmail if we
can't locate a sendmail at configure time...

Thanks for the explanation.
using

  %configure --with-sendmail=%{_sbindir}/sendmail

in the spec file is fine to me.

However, shoudn't send.sh be disabled if darcs is build without mail support ?
