Sorry to have bothered - just read the updating file...!
I should have let the upgrading process remove the dovecot user...
Warm regards,
ZS

Hello,
I tried to upgrade dovecot from 1.0.rc7 to rc22 but I got this error at
the end of the upgrade process:
Dovecot has reserved the groupname 'dovecot' and gid '143':
ERROR: groupname 'dovecot' already in use by gid '1003'
Please resolve these issues and try again:
Either remove the conflicting group or if you wish to continue using a
legacy gr
oup override DOVECOT_GID.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/mail/dovecot.
So I went to /usr/ports/mail/dovecot and edited the Makefile to change the
GID into:
DOVECOT_UID?= 1003
DOVECOT_GID?= 1003
SCRIPT_ENV+= DOVECOT_UID=${DOVECOT_UID} \
DOVECOT_GID=${DOVECOT_GID}
I saved the makefile and ran portupgrade again but I got stopped by
exactly the same error. I'd appreciate suggestions how to resolve this.
Thank you!
