Public bug reported:
Ubuntu: 8.04.1 (server amd64)
Version: 8.14.2-2build1
After 'apt-get install sendmail', removing the package (and autoremove)
leaves files around.
The following files are still present, after removing the package:
alternatives/aliases.5.gz
alternatives/lib.sendmail
alternatives/mailq
alternatives/mailq.1.gz
alternatives/newaliases
alternatives/newaliases.8.gz
alternatives/runq
alternatives/runq.8.gz
alternatives/sendmail
alternatives/sendmail-msp
alternatives/sendmail-msp.8.gz
alternatives/sendmail-mta
alternatives/sendmail-mta.8.gz
alternatives/sendmail.8.gz
cron.d/sendmail
cron.daily/sendmail
dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/sendmail
inetd.conf
init.d/sendmail
ld.so.cache
logcheck/ignore.d.paranoid/
logcheck/ignore.d.server/sendmail
logcheck/ignore.d.workstation/
logcheck/violations.ignore.d/
mail/
network/if-down.d/sendmail
network/if-post-down.d/sendmail
network/if-up.d/sendmail
pam.d/smtp
ppp/ip-down.d/sendmail
ppp/ip-up.d/sendmail
rc0.d/K19sendmail
rc1.d/K19sendmail
rc2.d/S21sendmail
rc3.d/S21sendmail
rc4.d/S21sendmail
rc5.d/S21sendmail
rc6.d/K19sendmail
In particular, /etc/cron.d/sendmail causes a cron jobs to run every 20 mins,
which fails as the binaries it refers to are no longer present on the system.
