Package: nullmailer
Version: 1:2.1-2
Severity: normal

The 1.13 series remotes accepted options like `--port 587`, while the
new 2.0 series requres `--port=587` as a style.

As these options are commonly stored in configuration, I think it would
be convenient to have those checked when upgrading on the stable path.

The NEWS files do not document the change. Admittedly, the syntax was
not advertised either (man page says `--port=587`), but my impression is
that accepting both is common enough that administrators can easily have
configured it that way.


Thanks
