Bug#4358: smartlist

["James A. Robinson" <jimr@simons-rock.edu>]

Package: smartlist
Version: 3.10-1

Hello,

I noticed a few problems with the smartlist when I installed it (to
check out whether or not it is a candidate to replace majordumbo)

My first thought was that the postinst should probably ask whether or
not it should set up an announce mailing list -- we might already have
such an aliases, or be using majordomo, or just want to check
smartlist out without creating a list yet.

The postinst is broken, it should use "hostname --fqdn" not "hostname
-fqdn" (the extra dash does it...).  The postinst should also check to
see whether or not newaliases exists before trying to run it, since
some of us haven't get our MTA set up to use it.

I thought it might get rid of "add following to /etc/aliases from the
"create announce" it does, because it adds the aliases itself.
