Yes - I have read this similar Q and all the answers. Unfortunately that was from years ago, and none of the answers work any longer.
I'm running an Ubuntu server 22.04, and installed mailutils
. Near the end of my first installation, I got a "window" (ncurses??) that popped up in the terminal, asking what type of install I wanted to do. Being ignorant, I went with the default "Internet", and learned later that the correct choice for my situation was "Satellite".
I can find no way to revert that decision. I have un-installed/removed, purged, re-booted and re-installed mailutils
multiple times now, but that "window" will not reappear. It's rather frustrating... Does anyone know how to rectify this??
EDIT 1:
FWIW, here's a list of the dependencies installed:
The following NEW packages will be installed: gsasl-common guile-3.0-libs libgc1 libgsasl7 libidn12 libltdl7 libmailutils8 libmysqlclient21 libntlm0 libpq5 mailutils mailutils-common mysql-common
/var/log/dpkg.log
, and hopefully it even disclose which package configuration window it was.default-mta
which defaults to Postfix.dpkg-reconfigure postfix
.apt install -f
. If that succeeds, resolve further. As to prevent this, better don't install debs like that, always pull from repository with apt. If you were provided with a deb file, better create your own repo and install from it. That said, this deviates from the question too much.
