Package: fetchmail
Version: 6.3.17-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi,
Fetchmail's init script should probably depend on exim4 and $named,
rather than just $network. At least here, with dependency-based boot
enabled, the first run always fails because DNS (a local pdnsd) is not
yet available when fetchmail is started ($network implies only low-level
networking). Similarly, fetchmail will usually need an MTA running, so
I've added a dependency on exim4 too (as precaution, I didn't experience
any failures due to this missing). There doesn't seem to be a $mta
target, but you could add other MTAs too if you care.
Patch is attached.
HTH,
Jan
