--- Begin Message ---Package: exim4-config Version: 4.63-17 Severity: normal Tags: patch /usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf contains a-zA-Z style character class matching code that is long known to not work with some locales that have different alphabet order (like Estonian - 'z' after 's' and before 't'). So it strips out any letters from the end of the alphabet and so the hostname 'foo.cyber.ee' becomes 'foo.c' and mail breaks since it's a nonexistant domain. Either use LANG=C explicitly or use POSIX character classes like this (the patch is tested to fix it for me): --- /usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf.old 2008-09-30 14:05:09.000000000 +0300 +++ /usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf 2008-09-30 16:03:34.000000000 +0300 @@ -114,7 +114,7 @@ fi # take only the first word from /etc/mailname -mailname="$(</etc/mailname sed -n 's/\([EMAIL PROTECTED]).*/\1/;p;q')" +mailname="$(</etc/mailname sed -n 's/\([-[:alnum:[EMAIL PROTECTED]).*/\1/;p;q')" # barf if lookups are found.
