Package: sendmail-base
Version: 8.14.2-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
while trying to upgrade sendmail packages : sendmail-base sendmail-bin
I got this error message :
Setting up sendmail-base (8.14.2-3) ...
Saving current /etc/mail/sendmail.mc,cf to /var/backups
--------- IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR XINETD USERS ----------
The following line will be added to your /etc/inetd.conf
#<off># smtp\tstream\ttcp\tnowait\troot\t/usr/sbin/sendmail sendmail -Am -bs
If you are indeed using xinetd, you will have to convert the
above into /etc/xinetd.conf format, and add it manually. See
/usr/share/doc/xinetd/README.Debian for more information.

It seems that the message related to xinetd configuration is interpreted as an
error message instead as a warning so the installation is blocked at this level
