Package: postfix
Version: 2.6.2~rc1-1
Severity: grave
On installation of postfix, a screen appears
Postfix Configuration
Please select the mail server configuration type that best meets your needs.
This screen has an OK button.
On activation of the OK button, a menu appears:
Postfix Configuration
General type of mail configuration:
No matter which option is selected, the previous screen reappears, and on
activating the OK, button, the menu appears again. This is recursive.
(Sometimes, there is a rapid continuous alternation between the two screens
without the need to activate the OK button).
Pressing Ctrl-C can sometimes return to a shell, however the package is
not installed if this is done, so the package is unusable.
