It would remove logrotate ! Thats used to rotate my apache-perl, mysql logs.
Logrotate needs an MTA to report on it's errors, so removing exim means no MTA.
Easiest way is to do an apt-get install nullmailer, nullmailer is a very small MTA which sends email to a specified smart host.
If you REALLY don't want an MTA on the box, then you'll need to cludge the logrotate package so that it no longer requires an MTA.
Do I just backup logrotate.conf and logrotate.d directory and let exim remove logroate then just reinstall logrotate or what?
Won't work, trying to install logrotate will force the install of an MTA
