Answer 1

O problema é que o valor inserido em /etc/hostname não corresponde a nenhuma entrada em /etc/hosts .

Isso faz com que o comando hostname --fqdn retorne um nome de host não resolvido, o que resulta em ssmtp não instalar.

Certifique-se de adicionar o nome do host da sua máquina a /etc/hosts .

Answer 2

Isso parece ruim:

hostname: Name or service not known
dpkg: error processing package ssmtp (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

hostname usado no script postinst (descreva no guia Debian para mantenedores de pacotes - link ) está falhando.

Como eu verifiquei mencionado pacote ssmtp na versão 2.64-8 (amd64) e tem seguinte script:

#!/bin/sh

set -e

if test -L /usr/doc/ssmtp
then
    rm -f /usr/doc/ssmtp 2>/dev/null || true
fi

. /usr/share/debconf/confmodule

db_get ssmtp/root
root="$RET"

db_get ssmtp/mailhub
mailhub="${RET:-mail}"

db_get ssmtp/port
port="$RET"

db_get ssmtp/hostname
hostname="${RET:-'hostname --fqdn'}"

db_get ssmtp/rewritedomain
rewritedomain="$RET"

if test -s /etc/mailname
then
    :
else
    test -n "$hostname" && MailName="$hostname"
    test -n "$rewritedomain" && MailName="$rewritedomain"

    touch /etc/mailname
    chmod 644 /etc/mailname
    echo "$MailName" > /etc/mailname
fi

db_get ssmtp/fromoverride
test "$RET" = "true" && FromOverride=YES

test -d /etc/ssmtp || exit 1

if test -s /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf
then
    if test "$port" = "25" -o -z "$port"
    then
        :
    else
        mailhub=${mailhub}:$port
    fi
    test -z "$FromOverride" && FromOverride=NO

    touch /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf.tmp
    chmod 644 /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf.tmp

    sed "s/^root=.*/root=$root/;s/^mailhub=.*/mailhub=$mailhub/;s/^rewriteDomain=.*/rewriteDomain=$rewritedomain/;s/^hostname=.*/hostname=$hostname/;s/^FromLineOverride=.*/FromLineOverride=$FromOverride/;s/^#FromLineOverride=.*/FromLineOverride=$FromOverride/" /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf > /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf.tmp
    mv -f /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf.tmp /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf
else
    touch /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf
    chmod 644 /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf

    exec 1>/etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf

    echo "#"
    echo "# Config file for sSMTP sendmail"
    echo "#"
    echo "# The person who gets all mail for userids < 1000"
    echo "# Make this empty to disable rewriting."
    echo "root=$root"
    echo
    echo "# The place where the mail goes. The actual machine name is required no "
    echo "# MX records are consulted. Commonly mailhosts are named mail.domain.com"
    if test "$port" = "25" -o -z "$port"
    then
        echo "mailhub=$mailhub"
    else
        echo "mailhub=${mailhub}:$port"
    fi
    echo
    echo "# Where will the mail seem to come from?"
    test -z "$rewritedomain" && echo -n "#"
    echo "rewriteDomain=$rewritedomain"
    echo ""
    echo "# The full hostname"
    echo "hostname=$hostname"
    echo
    echo "# Are users allowed to set their own From: address?"
    echo "# YES - Allow the user to specify their own From: address"
    echo "# NO - Use the system generated From: address"
    test -z "$FromOverride" && echo -n "#"
    echo "FromLineOverride=YES"
fi

# Program End
exit 0

O mais importante é:

hostname="${RET:-'hostname --fqdn'}"

Como foi mencionado, hostname --fqdn falhou. Por favor, verifique se:

• o comando existe
• qual comando hostname --fqdn return
