Hi, should be fixed by: 57c9c9d344f9ada425908166778e185be4d346d9 ad7d9137cd0be89551e9363852ed263f4b5da025

add chmod og-w /opt/etc to postinst

IMHO, sendmail-8.14.2/cf should be distributed as /opt/share/sendmail/cf or something like that, it's far more simple to edit a .mc than a .cf :)

sendmail-8.14.2/cf/cf/Makefile needed changes : CF=generic-linux MAILDIR=%OPTWARE_TARGET_PREFIX%/etc/mail INSTALL=%OPTWARE_TARGET_PREFIX%/bin/install add the following line before the all: target default: install-sendmail-cf

PS : why don't you provide submit.cf ?

Is that what you meant? :-)

hi,

%OPTWARE_TARGET_PREFIX%/etc/mail is a directory...

in postinst chmod 644 %OPTWARE_TARGET_PREFIX%/etc/mail should be chmod 755 %OPTWARE_TARGET_PREFIX%/etc/mail

also, add chmod og-w /opt/etc

Regards

[alllexx88]

%OPTWARE_TARGET_PREFIX%/etc/mail is a directory...

So what? I only see that fileclass complains about /opt/etc/mail being group writable. chmod 644 makes it rw-r--r-- -- not group writable. Why would you want to make it rwxr-xr-x? /opt/etc/mail doesn't contain scripts.

chmod og-w /opt/etc

No need for that, likewise

[gits68]

well, directories usually have the x byte for traversal.

[alllexx88]

Ah, I see what you mean. Didn't think you'd want to browse /opt/etc/mail as non-root. There's no real point for that in embedded, I think. Changed it to 755, since it costs nothing anyway :-)
