121587 2006-02-04 13:17 0000 three mail-mta/nullmailer-1.02 problems, including failure to set ownership/permissions on mailq.nullmailer when mailwrapper USE flag is on 2006-02-11 02:36:30 0000 1 1 1 Unclassified Gentoo Linux Unspecified unspecified All Linux RESOLVED FIXED P2 normal --- 1 sllewbj@blueyonder.co.uk robbat2@gentoo.org net-mail@gentoo.org sllewbj@blueyonder.co.uk 2006-02-04 13:17:12 0000 This problem report is about the ebuild for mail-mta/nullmailer-1.02. The same problems occurred with the earlier ebuild for mail-mta/nullmailer-1.00. Problem #1: When the "mailwrapper" USE flag is on, the ebuild moves nullmailer's /usr/bin/mailq to /usr/bin/mailq.nullmailer. Later, it sets the ownerships and permissions on the (now nonexistent) /usr/bin/mailq. This fails with these two error messages (my portage tmp directory is /extra/var/tmp): chown: cannot access `/extra/var/tmp/portage/nullmailer-1.02/image//usr/bin/mailq': No such file or directory chmod: cannot access `/extra/var/tmp/portage/nullmailer-1.02/image//usr/bin/mailq': No such file or directory Because of this, the ownership and permissions are not set correctly on /usr/bin/mailq.nullmailer and the mailq command fails with this error message: Cannot change directory to queue. This problem seems to have arisen due to a somewhat botched fix to bug 95292. Problem #2: The ebuild prints this message: Please ensure you have selected nullmailer in your /etc/mailer.conf This file no longer exists. The correct file name is /etc/mail/mailer.conf. Problem #3: The ebuild does not fix any running copy of the nullmailer-send daemon. I suggest that it either execute the command svc-restart nullmailer or remind the user to do so.
