Note that I've been trying to point out that "mta" is the name of the *alternative* (ie. update-alternatives stuff). There is no such Provides, you can't have a dependency on it. Anyway, repoquery doesn't list any packages with dependencies to "MTA" here. > Wouldn't it be better to remove completly mta/MTA Ok, but again, "MTA" only if talking about Provides.

To clarify, with "mail" you mean either of /bin/mail (executable) or mailx (package)? > And use smtpdameon when a real > smtp server/Mail Transfer Agent is needed ? That would work too, leaving only semantics of "Provides: smtpdaemon" to be documented, and that provision probably removed from ssmtp. And going through packages that have dependencies on smtpdaemon, fixing where appropriate. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
