Hi Jonas,

At the end of a very long discussion on debian-policy and elsewhere, bug
#508644 has de facto been resolved by exim4-daemon-light now declaring a
Provides: default-mta.  As a result, it would be helpful if packages would
start to Depends: default-mta | mail-transport-agent, instead of depending
on a particular MTA - allowing derivatives to choose a different default MTA
without having to modify all the reverse-depends in the Debian archive.

The attached patch implements this change for the moin package.  Please
consider applying it at your convenience.
