Package: dma
Version: 0.11-1+deb10u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

In fixing #741904 in the config script, reading SMARTHOST from
/etc/dma/dma.conf now fails if there is both a commented line for SMARTHOST
and also a line setting the value. I'm not sure that there is any value in
detecting a commented line in /etc/dma/dma.conf and then sticking that value
into the debconf database for later use, so ignoring commented values is
perhaps the simplest route.

(Incidentally the failure mode of this is truly horrible; db_set in the config
script just returns 128 because it doesn't like the multiline value that has
been fed to it; exiting 128 causes the config script to exit without any hint
as to what has happened.)

cheers
Stuart
