Hi Folks:

As current Factory "minimal installation" does not contain an MTA, I
have added

Requires: smtp_daemon

as a dependency in the php5 package ( php mail() function requires
sendmail binary to work)

however, now everytime I build PHP extensions in the
server:php_extension project.. I get.

"expansion error have choice for smtp_daemon needed by php5: exim
sendmail postfix"


PHP extensions requires php5-devel (which Requires: php5) to build
correclty outside the php tree, and this prompt is actually expected to
show when the user is installing the package with a package manager (as
I dont want to force people to choose a particular MTA, I just want a
sendmail comaptible binary) however, in the buildservice I have no way
to choose what mta to install and build fails.. will be nice if
smtp_daemon is just mapped to postfix in the build hosts.

Cya.
Cristian.
