sendmail di debian lenny
sewaktu mau install sendmail setelah selesai install sendmail-cf
terdapat error seperti ini
m4:/etc/mail/sendmail.mc:10: cannot open `/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4': No such file or directory
Starting Mail Transport Agent (MTA): sendmailMakefile:364: warning: overriding commands for target `/etc/aliases.db'
Makefile:361: warning: ignoring old commands for target `/etc/aliases.db'
Makefile:422: warning: overriding commands for target `/etc/aliases'
Makefile:361: warning: ignoring old commands for target `/etc/aliases'
make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4', needed by `/etc/mail/databases'. Stop.
kita bisa mengecek keberadaan file dipaket mana dengan dpkg. caranya
dpkg -S /usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4
ternyata tidak ada
dan coba kita trace ke error sebelumnya
m4:/etc/mail/sendmail.mc:10: cannot open `/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4': No such file or directory
menunjukan error di file
/etc/mail/sendmail.mc
coba baca line 10
/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4
kemudian
baca baris dibawahnya ada clue
/usr/share/sendmail/cf/m4/cf.m4
sekarang dicoba
#dpkg -S /usr/share/sendmail/cf/m4/cf.m4
sendmail-cf: /usr/share/sendmail/cf/m4/cf.m4
nahhh kemungkinan besar generate file /etc/mail/sendmail.mc ada kesalahan coba ganti di line 10
/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4 dengan /usr/share/sendmail/cf/m4/cf.m4
dan lakukan apt-get install sendmail
dan lancar jaya
