Package: exim
Version: 3.35-1woody2
The postrm script in the latest exim security release seems broken, the
logic in purge should be reversed so interaction is required if the
directory is non-empty - currently the if conditional will enter if the
directory is empty:
###################################################################
# Remove spool; if it's non-empty, ask user before trying again
if rmdir /var/spool/exim/input/ 2>/dev/null
then
cat <<EOF
There are mails in the exim spool directory which have not yet
been delivered. You can keep them in case you decide to re-install
exim at a later date, or you can choose to remove them.
Should they be removed (Y/n)?

The exim package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.
For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/420191 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.
Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.
Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
