I have created my own custom Debian installer CD based on the debian
net-inst cd image. I modified the local repository to include some
additional packages I would like to have installed by default. I then
reburned the iso and installed the system. Everything works perfectly
until I try to install sendmail. I get the following error:
# apt-get install sendmail
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
exim4-base: Depends: exim4-config (>= 4.30) but it is not going to be
installed or
exim4-config-2
E: Broken packages
If I change my sources to a full debian repository this works perfectly
without any errors. Also if I do a:
apt-get remove --purge exim4-base
then the apt-get install sendmail command works perfectly well. Did I
mess something up in creating the Packages file? Does anybody know what
I'm missing? If you need more information just let me know. This problem
has me really stumped.
