Package: postfix
Version: 2.1.5-9
Severity: normal


Installing postfix installs resolvconf, which on every machine I've
installed postfix on I've then gone and purged resolvconf.  I don't
understand why it is required, perhaps making resolvconf a recommended
package?

Cheers,
James Clark

You mean like this:
  Recommends: mail-reader, resolvconf
(Which has always been the case...)

Your package manager is defaulting to installing recommended packages -
if postfix Depended on resolvconf, removing resolvconf would also remove
postfix....

not a bug.
