The sources of 4.0 as of last night's CVSup [Mar 6, 2000].
>Description:
I'm using qmail on 4.0, and the 'make world' thing keeps
overwriting the symlink of /usr/sbin/sendmail pointing to the
qmail wrapper /var/qmail/bin/sendmail.
I've tracked this to the SYMLINKS= line in the Makefile of
/usr/src/usr.sbin/mailwrapper/ and tested a small patch that
will inhibit the creation of SYMLINKS if NO_SENDMAIL=yes.
It doesn't seem to break 'make install' of mailwrapper, but it
keeps my link safe from being overwritten.
See the included patch below ;)
>How-To-Repeat:
If you're using qmail, make the link from /usr/sbin/sendmail to
point to /var/qmail/bin/sendmail. On your next 'installworld'
the link is overwritten with a link to /usr/sbin/mailwrapper.
