Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mdadm
Anybody who cares about redundancy to use mdadm probably cares enough
about redundancy to want being informed if redundancy is degraded.
Debian systems do have at least local mail enabled and package mdadm
asks for a mail address to notify during mdadm install.
By default ubuntu system support no local mail and mdadm package was
patched to suppress the debconf email question, without setting up mdadm
--monitor to use wall or notify-send as an alternative.
As informing a human is a serious data protection topic mdadm should
depend on a package providing at least local mail services and/or use
wall/notify-send to get the message out.
** Affects: mdadm (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Summary changed:
- mdadm monitor feature is disabled, not depending on local MTA/MDA or
wall/notify-send
+ mdadm monitor feature broken, not depending on local MTA/MDA or using
wall/notify-send
