[Bug 365390] Re: postfix: invalid value for smtpd_tls_mandatory_ciphers in main.cf

[Jonathan Marsden]

@Mathias: That's fine.  I was just following the example set by some
other parameters in that same file, very close to the line being
discussed, such as

  set_postfix_option "smtpd_tls_mandatory_protocols = SSLv3, TLSv1"

and also

  set_postfix_option "tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom"

which seem to me to be setting things to the same value as the default.
I therefore thought there must be a reason for doing it this way, and so
I carefully followed the example set by the creators of this script :)

I think it would be good to be consistent about this, and *only* set
things which are non-default, unless there really is a valid reason for
doing otherwise?

Attached is a new debdiff that just removes the one line for
smtpd_tls_mandatory_ciphers.  If you feel we should also remove the
others that set things the same as the default, let me know :)

BTW, I looked at doing this as a bzr branch, but was puzzled by the
branch name being ubuntu-intrepid, so I just did a debdiff instead,
rather than risk a mistake of using the wrong bzr branch!
