DragonFlyBSD

:Greetings,
:
:I wanted to make note that newaliases doesn't seem to be run after
:installation.
:
:How did I find this bug? Well, I installed DragonFlyBSD 1.4 (overwriting
:DragonFlyBSD Preview) yesterday because I wanted to do a nice clean
:installation. I came to work this morning and found this in my logs:
:
:Jan 10 03:02:25 www sm-mta⁷⁴⁷⁸³: k0AB2PmO074783: SYSERR: hash
:map "Alias0": missing map file /etc/mail/aliases.db: No such file or
:directory
:Jan 10 03:02:25 www sm-mta⁷⁴⁷⁸⁷: k0AB2PDj074787: SYSERR: hash
:map "Alias0": missing map file /etc/mail/aliases.db: No such file or
:directory
:Jan 10 03:02:25 www sm-mta⁷⁴⁷⁸⁹: k0AB2PmO074783: SYSERR: hash
:map "Alias0": missing map file /etc/mail/aliases.db: No such file or

:map "Alias0": missing map file /etc/mail/aliases.db: No such file or
:directory
:
:It's not a huge deal. After running newalises, everything seemed fine
:although it seems like that's something that should be done
:automatically upon installation.

:Thanks,

Yup, it should have and didn't.  I'll add it to the errata.

I have a feeling that this occured in 1.2 as well. It's just a feeling.
It's been a long while since I installed 1.2 and there's no reason to go
back anyway, but I think it could be an old bug or something. Just
thought I'd let you know.

Yah. its one of those bugs that I think a lot of people noticed,
    but then just did 'newalias' and forgot about it.

As I've doing some new DF fresh install on my test machine, I've installed
1.12.0 and 1.12.2 recently and I have not encountered this problem with aliases.

bug reappeared. we need to run newaliases when populating ${DESTDIR}/etc, I
believe.
