Hello,
As someone pointed out to me, the packages I have released won't install
cleanely on RedHat 4.0 systems. If you use RedHat 3.0.3, then you are
fine. For RedHat 4.0, the initialization scripts for sendmail don't live
anymore in the initscripts package (as in RH 3.0.3), so the sendmail RPM
must include them. I have produced RPMs which will install cleanely on RH
4.0 systems too.
To anyone having this problem (my RPMs will delete the initialization
scripts), my sincere apologies, it wasn't my intention to have this
result :-(. If that was happening to you, you have two choices: either
recover the /etc/rc.d/... sendmail init scripts from an older package, or
download again the updated RPMs.
Other than this, there are no changes.
