Interesting change which affects all installs at critical
priority.
exim4 will now no longer prompt for its config type at critical
priority, bu only high priority.
This means that critical priority installs will then have one less
question asked to users...\o/
Of course, this doesn't affect the default install which will still
see the exiM4 question.
Thanks fo exim4 maintainers....

Package: exim4-config
Version: 4.52-2
Severity: wishlist
(CC'ing -boot as this is strongly installer-related given that exim4 is
installed on all systems by default)
I already imagined suggesting this for sarge but it was then a bit late.
The currentl dc_eximconfig_configtype question is asked at critical
priority. However, it has a sane default ("Local delivery only"), so
skipping the question and using the default answer leads to a perfectly
working system.
So, why not lowering the question priority a little and ask it at high
priority: it will still be asked on default installs and this will allow
people who want to skip it in very straight installs to have one less
question at critical priority.

Changes:
exim4 (4.62-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream version
* remove !acl patch, bug is fixed upstream
* Some minor changes to README.Debian
* Downgrade priority of exim4/dc_eximconfig_configtype, exim4/no_config and
exim4/exim3_upgrade from critical to high, as there is a sane default.
Closes: #342077
* Allow single quotes in recipient mail addresses. Closes: #346222
* Update debian/mtalist to conflict with hula-mta. (mh)
* Move back man-pages (actually they are symlinks) related to the
mail-transport-agent virtual package from exim4-base to the daemon
packages. Other MTA packages also include these manpages and would
otherwise need to explicitely conflict with exim4-base. Add "Replaces:
exim4-base (<= 4.61-1)" to the daemon packages. Thanks to Justin Pryzby.
Closes: #362852 (am)
* Update km (Khmer) translation.
Thanks to Khoem Sokhem. (mh) Closes: #363672, #363671
* Update pa (Punjabi) translation.
Thanks to A S Alam. (am) Closes: #364268
* replace backticks with $() construct in ue4.conf. (mh)
* Allow ";" as separator in dc_local_interfaces and dc_relay_nets.
If a semicolon is found, "<;" is prepended to allow a semicolon as
separator. Thanks to Adam Borowski. (mh) Closes: #360162
* Link against libdb4.3 instead of 4.2. (am). Closes: #365467
* Standards-Version: 3.7.0, no changes required. (am)
* README.Debian: Add link to "how to use a completely different
configuration scheme" to the beginning of the chapter about Debian's
configuration to provide an easy way out for experienced exim people.
(mh)
* Fix grammar error in README.Debian. (Thanks, Ross Boylan) Closes: #365546
* Whennever changing major Berkeley DB versions we zap the exim hint
databases in exim4-base postinst. Change the code to also delete
__db.retry, __db.misc, __db.callout and __db.wait* (which afaik are
Berkeley DB internal files). If these are somehow broken strange errors
occur, e.g. #360696. As we are deleting the whole db, deleting these files
seems to be a good idea. (am)
