We only have proof now that the issue is somewhat related to updating exim. I'll put some more debugging code in the maintainer scripts for the next exim4 upload. Please make sure that you set EX4DEBUG to a non-empty value before your upgrade to any version later than 4.67-5 and capture output please. It might also be a good idea to run your pidwatch script in more shorter frequency (such as every second) during the update, and to find out whether your system uses some sort of prelinking etc. Greetings Marc -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marc Haber | "I don't trust Computers.
