+	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.
