A new issue with the sendmail upgrade has come to light.
/etc/aliases has moved to /etc/mail/aliases. Mergemaster will
incorrectly install the default aliases in /etc/mail rather than
move the old one from /etc. So you'll need to manually move the
file, create a symbolic link, remove the old /etc/aliases.db and
run newaliases. For safety sake, you should stop sendmail
while doing this and run the upgrade when locally sourced email
is not likely to be generated.
