Description Terje Røsten 2013-09-06 07:00:09 UTC 
Description of problem:

quilt mail --send ...

gives:

You have to install 'formail' to use 'quilt mail'

Might want to add dep on /usr/bin/formail or procmail directly?
Comment 1 Josh Boyer 2013-09-06 14:02:21 UTC 
Hm.  Adding a dep as you suggest is the right thing to do, but I don't want people to have to install procmail just to use quilt.  Perhaps splitting the quilt mail functionality into a sub-package would help.
Comment 2 Terje Røsten 2013-09-06 17:51:40 UTC 
procmail is 174k... 

it's not modern, however how much harm can it do?
Comment 3 Terje Røsten 2013-11-24 13:08:14 UTC 
Any decision yet? 

Can close ticket if no action will be taken.
Comment 4 Josh Boyer 2013-12-09 14:53:09 UTC 
I added the Requires in rawhide with the 0.61 release.
