Description Jiri Dluhos 2005-08-09 08:08:46 UTC
The FHS 2.4 standard requires the /usr/lib/sendmail link must exist and point to
/usr/sbin/sendmail if installed. (For historical reasons).

It is just a formal detail but we need it for LSB 3.0 compliance.
Comment 1 Dr. Werner Fink 2005-08-09 09:05:11 UTC
The sendmail package includes this

/suse/werner> rpm -qf /usr/lib/sendmail
sendmail-8.13.3-5

the postfix package does not

/suse/werner> rpm -qlp /work/CDs/all/full-i386/suse/i586/postfix.rpm | grep
/usr/lib/sendmail
/suse/werner>

It was created, but just not packaged. It is now.
