It's all about the shrieking.

solarbirdThings are well and firmly pooched.
The new sendmail changes the format of sendmail.cf again. The new sendmail configuration tools are installed in a VERY, VERY BROKEN STATE and don't work. The package manager has decided that it has a holy obligation to remove all of:
apache at bind bug deliver info2www junkbuster logrotate man2html mgetty-fax mutt nmh nn phpmyadmin qpopper samba smartlist super swat task-dns-server task-samba trn www-pgsql xlbiff
...but I've managed to fix that. I've forced a (semi?) correct sendmail.cf together in the new data format, but now that it's running, sendmail can't see name service. Meanwhile, the package manager has also decided that libcurses-dev conflicts with itself, and by god is going to let me know about it constantly.
All of this started just in upgrading around a libc but that allows remote exploits. The dependancy tree for libc is {darth vader noise}impressive{/darth vader noise}. And, apparently, severely fucked.
stupid package managers. i hate this really a lot.
