Re: New libc6 breaks exim?
Sendmail appears to have a similar problem. Mail sent by a user gets
sent out, but some of the messages to root appear to get stuck in a
queue:
e8QM2C130758 1912 Tue Sep 26 15:02 root
(Deferred: user database error)
root
newaliases won't run, either.
I tried rebuilding sendmail but get a bunch of errors I haven't been
able to sort out yet. I filed bug #72519 against sendmail, but don't
really have a handle on the problem.
