Description Markus Rothe (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-11-01 00:30:35 UTC
Hi,

I would like to see this been added to the msmtp ebuild (all):

PROVIDE="virtual/mta"

Or is there any specific reason, why this is not added to those ebuilds?

ok.. msmtp doesn't provide /usr/sbin/sendmail, so the package does not provide virtual/mta... :-/

Closing...
