Description Georgi Georgiev 2006-06-12 15:41:28 UTC
mailer.eclass is trying to run mailer-config --get-current-profile in its mailer_get_current() function. The dependencies of the eclass include

|| ( net-mail/mailer-config app-admin/eselect )

The mailer-config command is not provided by app-admin/eselect and thus the eclass gives an error.

Furthermore, even if I symlink eselect to mailer-config, I still get an error, because the outputs of "eselect mailer" and mailer-config are in different formats, and mailer.eclass only recognizes the one from net-mail/mailer.config.

Steps to reproduce:

1. emerge -C mailer-config
2. emerge eselect
3. env USE=mailwrapper emerge netqmail

Watch for the error in postinst.

This is not fatal, but annoying none the less.

no more mailer.eclass, or mailer-config in portage
