By the way, I don't understand how this dependency chain resolves to postfix:
smartmontools recommends mailx | bsd-mailx mailx is a virtual package provided by mailutils and bsd-mailx Both mailutils and bsd-mailx depend on default-mta | mail-transport- agent default-mta is a virtual package provided by exim4-daemon-light mail-transport-agent is a virtual package provided by all SMTP servers in Debian (both full-blown and fake ones like ssmtp or nullmailer) Knowing this, I don't understand how APT could have chosen Postfix to resolve this chain of dependency. Whichever one of bsd-mailx or mailutils was chosen to satisfy smartmontools dependencies, APT's first choice should have been exim4-daemon-light, not postfix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1758798 Title: tlp recommends smartmontools which then pulls in Postfix mailserver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntubudgie/+bug/1758798/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
