Dear maintainer(s),

I noticed that package anope recommends default-mta, which is not in the
last position of a group (or it has no concrete alternatives preceding
it).

The virtual package default-mta is provided by exim4-daemon-light.

As far as I know: in order to make "apt"/tools install one of those, a
concrete package should be recommended and the virtual package be the
last one in the group.

Thank you,
