This is happening with Darcs 2.12.5 and current Darcs HEAD. When no MTA (Mail Transport Agent) is installed, `darcs send` fails right after computing the list of patches to be sent, even if it is used without the --mail flag (ie, when you do not need an MTA at all): ~~~ $ darcs send Creating patch to "http://darcs.net"... Patch bundle will be sent to: patches@darcs.net No working sendmail instance on your machine! ~~~

The default behavior of darcs send has long ago been changed to just create a patch bundle.
