[opensuse-buildservice] expansion error: have choice for smtp_daemon needed by php5: exim sendmail postfix
by Cristian Rodriguez R. 01 May '07

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.
