Once sendmail "registers" (in any of the methods described; this would only happen with a woody sendmail) then it's not an issue if the new init script isn't unpacked in any post-woody release -- the woody init script tells libc6 that it needs a restart. Besides, I believe libc6 is installed and restarts the daemons even before most of the new daemon packages (like sendmail) are unpacked and installed -- such that the restart will be with the *current* init script. -- Brock Rozen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
