Package: debian-policy
Version: 4.1.3.0
Severity: minor

In Policy 7.1. Syntax of relationship fields, there is an example:

   For example, a list of dependencies might appear as:

   Package: mutt
   Version: 1.3.17-1
   Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.1), exim | mail-transport-agent

I would like to suggest that this be updated to replace exim with
default-mta, since exim is no longer in Debian as it has been replaced
with exim4 and many years ago we switched to using the default-mta
virtual package to make it easier to change the default MTA on Debian.
