exim-4.30.ebuild

Patched version which only installs that particular symbolic link if /bin/mail
and /usr/bin/mail do not exist.

Comment 6 bartron 2004-02-23 16:19:06 UTC
  Three problems I see in the attachment in Comment #4...

* `/usr/bin/mail' might belong to nail or an already installed 
  version of exim at the time exim emerges.
* `src_install()' should not act differently depending on anything on 
  the live filesystem, otherwise it'll break binary packages 
  (`/bin/mail' may not exist on the system a binary package was built 
  on, but may exist on the system it is unpacked).  
* said symlink really should not exist at all.

handing these over to Jay
Comment 8 Jay Pfeifer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-29 13:01:51 UTC
OK. I added 4.30 to portage. Should be on the mirrors in 1-2 hours.

Enjoy... and test.
