Bug#400794: exim4-base: fail to install/update due to a reference to the file /home/mh/....

[J.L. Fernandez Jambrina]

Package: exim4-base
Version: 4.63-10
Severity: normal


Hi,

  I had some strange problems both installing and updating exim4-base
  due to the combination of an missconfigured automount and a reference
  to an 'extrange' file
  /home/mh/chroot/sid/var/spool/exim4/gnutls-params in the 44 line of
  exim4-base.postinst.

  Please, remove or correct the reference to this file.

       Thanks,

       Jose
