- Update $PKGREQ to depend explicitly on Python >= 2.1.3, and not just >= 2.1
- Document required value of $MAIL_GID for Exim4.
- Substantial rewrite of $PKGINSTALL:
- Simplified layout.
- More extensive error checking.
- More expressive and user-friendly output.
- Substantial rewrite of $PKGDEINSTALL:
- Simplified layout.
- More expressive and user-friendly output.
- Delete %%MAILMANDIR%%/data/last_mailman_version in DEINSTALL, and restore
it in POST-DEINSTALL if the entire Mailman installation has not been
removed. This file is required by Mailman's update script (run as part
of the installation procedure) to update active mailing lists.
- Delete the errorlog if it is the only existing logfile. This will
finally allow the mailman port/package to be completely and cleanly
deinstalled when there are no active lists or updated configuration.
- Bump $PORTREVISION, with apologies to those tracking the port.
It should now finally be possible to update a Mailman installation with
active mailing lists simply by deinstalling the port/package, and
reinstalling a later version (or by using portupgrade(1)). There are still
no guarantees, though, and a backup is thorouhly recommended.
