Package: fetchmail
Version: 6.2.4-3
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/fetchmail
Last time I was given instructions on how to prevent fetchmail from
starting at boot for my machine that is connected via ppp modem only 20
minutes a day.
Upon upgrading fetchmail, whatever setting was wiped out and now it is
acting like I am connected, filling up the logs again.
Please engineer a permanent solution via a conf file setting, that one
can dpkg-reconfigure.
P.S., when one does a dpkg-reconfigure, the messages look pretty
scary to one who has fetchmail already installed. They talk from the
perspective of a new installation.
Also the Readme mentioned is a .gz, so one can't just paste the name
and get the file.
P.S. when it says
These scripts *will* cause you trouble if you have an older setup in
/etc/ppp/ip-{up,down}.d/, so please read the README.Debian file
to know more about them.
one worries 'how old does he mean, last upgrade?' So perhaps reword
it.
here again one sees there is only one choice:
You can install a system-wide fetchmail daemon (which will run either
as root, or as the x x fetchmail user) to collect and deliver email
for all users in your system. The service x x is started
automatically on boot, and when you bring up a ppp link. x x x x You
will need to manually configure the system-wide fetchmail daemon in
the x x /etc/fetchmailrc file, or else the service will refuse to
start. x x x x Install a system-wide fetchmail service?
either boot+ppp
or nothing.
please separate boot, ppp, and nothing.
yes, i've submitted this bug before, i'm sure.
but it is not in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?submitter=jidanni@jidanni.org
so i will make a fresh bug, as i cannot reopen archived bugs.

.
[ Hector Garcia ]

* Fixed a problem on debian/rules that was forcing configure to be called twice.
* Changed UIDL file to /var/lib/fetchmail/.fetchmail-UIDL-cache since now
upstream needs to write more files on same dir, hence /var/mail it is not
suitable.

that the --mda %T and %F substitutions add single quotes, hoping to avoid
bogus bug reports. (Closes: #224564).
- gettext (intl/) has been removed from the fetchmail package.
- Use of automake.
- Rename fetchmailconf to fetchmailconf.py. Created a /bin/sh wrapper.
- New dummy fetchmailconf manual page.
- fetchmailconf redirects fetchmail's input from /dev/null so it doesn't
wait for the user to enter a password when the user doesn't even see the prompt.

example how to use it. (Closes: #213484)
- Try to obtain FQDN as our own host by default, rather than using
"localhost". If hostname cannot be qualified, complain noisily and continue,
unless Kerberos, ODMR or ETRN are used (these require a FQDN).
Partial fix of Debian Bug#150137. (Closes: #316454).
- fetchmailconf now sets the service properly after autoprobe.
(Closes: #320645).

as the end of the trailer, but wait for the proper tagged OK line. To work
around the qmail + Courier-IMAP problem in Debian. (Closes: #338007).
- Fixes: when trying to send a bounce message, don't bail out if we cannot
qualify our own hostname, so we aren't losing the bounce. Instead, pass the
buck on to the SMTP server and use our own unqualified hostname.

Adrogué Calveras), Czech [cs] (Miloslav Trmac), German [de] (MA),
