Hi Robert,
your bsd-mailx package hardcodes sendmail to be at /usr/sbin/sendmail
by default (see 02-Base-fixes-1.patch). I found myself needing to
override sendmail systemwide due to an esoteric setup ask for details
at your own peril ;)
I found mailx will keep using /usr/sbin/sendmal despite me overriding
it at /usr/local/sbin/sendmail (which comes first in $PATH).
I wonder do we need to use absolute paths here? Wouldn't
#define _PATH_SENDMAIL "sendmail
work just as well?
Thanks,
--Daniel
