Package: exim4
Version: 4.94.2-7
Severity: serious
Tags: d-i ftbfs patch
Justification: fails to build from source

Dear Maintainer,

When building the exim4-daemon-custom with the source package of exim4, 
after enable the DMARC support by uncomment some line in 
EDITME.exim4-xxxx. I finally got the following error:

```
dmarc.c:448:20: error: too few arguments to function 
'opendmarc_policy_store_dkim'
   448 |     libdm_status = opendmarc_policy_store_dkim(dmarc_pctx, US 
sig->domain,
       |                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from dmarc.h:14,
                  from exim.h:548,
                  from dmarc.c:14:
/usr/include/opendmarc/dmarc.h:122:20: note: declared here
   122 | OPENDMARC_STATUS_T opendmarc_policy_store_dkim(DMARC_POLICY_T 
*pctx, u_char *domain, u_char *selector, int result, u_char *human_result);
       |                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
```

I found it's a old build bug of exim4 because of the OpenDMARC's API 
change between 1.3 and 1.4 that add an additional parameter "selector" 
to the function `opendmarc_policy_store_dkim`. See also at related bugs 
1 and 2.

The related bugs 1 provided a short patch, and I paste it at follow. 
After patch it, I succeed to build exim4-daemon-custom with SPF and 
DMARC support.
