For several reasons I was unhappy with the Exim packages Debian ships. So I started my own attempts to package Exim as close as possible to the original Exim and as close as possible to that what a seasoned Debian Admin would expect. https://gitea.schlittermann.de/heiko/exim4-exim.org/src/branch/debian/bullseye But, be ware, it is in a "works-for-me" status. I use the built packages on several hosts of my own and my customers infrastructure. > I wonder if anybody on this list has done such a conversion recently, > and would have time to share the chief gotchas they encountered. Currently the worst thing is the libopendmarc issue (Debian ships a version which is not compatible with the latest Exim versions. So I put the version Exim needs as a patch into the package and it gets installed in and linked from /usr/lib/exim4/libopendmarc or so.)
