Package: apticron
Version: 1.1.27
Severity: normal

Hello,

Apticron uses the -a option, which for different mailx packages means different
things. With bsd-mailx, it means adding a header ; with heirloom-mailx, it
means attaching a file.

Since you are already depending on bsd-mailx, why don't you just do what you
want, that is invoking /usr/bin/bsd-mailx instead of /usr/bin/mailx which may
be a symlink to one or the other ? As in :

 .
   * Call /usr/bin/bsd-mailx instead of /usr/bin/mailx in order to avoid using
     an incompatible mailx packages such as heirloom-mailx. Note that it will
     work considering heirloom-mailx will not provide bsd-mailx - which I guess
     so. Thanks to Frédéric Perrin. (Closes: 524169)
