>Description:
Installing mail/dbmail pulls in mail/gmime2 as a dependency.
mail/gmime2 installs mutant versions of uuencode and uudecode
in /usr/local/bin. mail/mailman/Makefile uses "uudecode -p",
which the mutant version of uudecode doesn't support,
resulting in an installation failure for mail/mailman.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install mail/dbmail and mail/mailman, in that order.
>Fix:
mail/mailman/Makefile should use "/usr/bin/uudecode" rather
than just "uudecode".
mail/gmime2 should not install mutant verions of uuencode and
uudecode when pulled in as a side effect of installing another
program, or should use alternate names (eg, gmime-uu{en,de}code).
