This breaks my system where I use sendmail from ports in /etc/mailer.conf. cd mail && exec make distribution install -c -o root -g wheel -m 644 aliases /tmp/_etcdir.9nVgeOiVtS/etc/mail/aliases /usr/sbin/makemap -t aliases -o /tmp/_etcdir.9nVgeOiVtS/etc/mail/aliases.db /tmp/_etcdir.9nVgeOiVtS/etc/mail/aliases makemap: error opening type /tmp/_etcdir.9nVgeOiVtS/etc/mail/aliases.db map /tmp/_etcdir.9nVgeOiVtS/etc/mail/aliases: Unknown database type *** Error 73 in mail (Makefile:17 'distribution') *** Error 1 in /usr/src/etc (Makefile:203 'distribution-etc-root-var') *** Error 1 in /usr/src (Makefile:83 'build') man -a newaliases says Notice: do not use makemap to create the aliases data base, because newaliases puts a special token into the data base that is required by sendmail. bluhm
