My assumption was that this was less an issue in packaging and more likely somehow my fault, so posting here made more sense than filing. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/35684 On Thu, Jun 6, 2013 at 10:36 PM, Gaetan Bisson <bisson@archlinux.org> wrote:

In short, the latest upgrade seems to have borked fetchmail:
fetchmail: Error writing to MDA: Broken pipe
Deleting the /bin symlink and creating a /bin directory containing only a symlink /bin/sh pointing to /usr/bin/bash, makes fetchmail work again.
Running `strace -vf fetchmail` reveals that the execve("/bin/sh"...) call returns EPERM.
Please create a report on our bug tracker so this issue gets assigned to the relevant packager and eventually fixed...
Has anybody encountered this?
There is really no point looking for "bug buddies": this has never (and will never) fix problems. Reporting them to our tracker does.
