Bug 22000 – new ebuild for nullmailer

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Martin Lesser 2003-05-31 09:18:06 UTC]

Could not find an ebuild for nullmailer so I created one. Not sure whether quoting the ebuild here is the right way but the FAQs say so. Please let me know if there are errors in this ebuild or I should apply more files/infos.

See net-mail/nullmailer which supercedes this.

I specificially exclude your prerm and postrm sections as they cause many undesirable effects if upgrading the package.
