Would someone knowledgeable in debian'ese answer a couple of questions. 1. The debian policy manual Section 3.4 System Run Levels talks about symbolic links in the /etc/rcn.d directories. All of my rc[0-S].d directories are empty. Upateprc.d man page says updates those same directories. It doesn't do that on my slink setup. Am i reading this all wrong?
2. As I have decided to use qmail as my MTA, I am having problems installing, from slink or stable, any MUA's or procmail. I had a problem with the slink version of mutt so compiled and installed my own. Now I want to instal procmail but, of course, it won't install because it needs an MTA and doesn't know about qmail. I can't seem to find any info as to how to force an install and ignore dependicies. Have I missed something here also? Thanks for any pointers you may know about.
