Package: courier
Version: 0.64-2.1
Severity: normal

Hello Maintainer,

If I install on a fresh system, the courier packes try to install  exim4
whch is definitivey not desired.  Even if I install explicit courier-mta
the install scripts output tonns  of  errors,  because  "exim4"  is  NOT
installed.

Since courier is not a simple MTA or SMTP or IMAP or  POP3  server,  but
instead a WHOLE server suite, the depends should be setup to

        Depends:  courier-mta | default-mta

which will avoid any error messages if someone install the whole courier
suite.

While installing a whole new server, the current behaviour from Lnny and
Squeeze output more then 800 lines of error messages  if  you  instal  a
full server with around 70 target packages where most require an MTA.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening

Unless a real dependency issue (other than something boiling down to courier-mta not being the default MTA) comes up, I'm inclined to close this ticket.  So far, nothing substantial has been shown in this ticket.

Given nothing else popped up here, I'm now closing this ticket.

Regards

Markus
