I'm on RHES 4.x
I downloaded 2 dovecot RPM packages from
http://packages.sw.be/dovecot/
dovecot-1.0.13-1.el4.rfx.i386.rpm 13-Nov-2010 22:15 1.8M RHEL4 and
CentOS-4 x86 32bit
and
dovecot-0.99.13-1.2.el4.test.i386.rpm 21-Feb-2005 16:57 693K RHEL4 and
CentOS-4 x86 32bit
The first rpm fails with error below :
# rpm -i ./dovecot-1.0.13-1.el4.rfx.i386.rpm
warning: ./dovecot-1.0.13-1.el4.rfx.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key
ID 6b8d79e6
error: Failed dependencies:
libmysqlclient.so.14(libmysqlclient_14) is needed by
dovecot-1.0.13-1.el4.rfx.i386
I have a hard time trying to locate an rpm that contains
libmysqlclient.so.14
& have no luck :
# rpm -i ./mysql-libs-5.1.42-4.el6.i686.rpm
warning: ./mysql-libs-5.1.42-4.el6.i686.rpm: V3 RSA/MD5 signature: NOKEY,
key ID f21541eb
error: Failed dependencies:
libcrypto.so.10 is needed by mysql-libs-5.1.42-4.el6.i686
libssl.so.10 is needed by mysql-libs-5.1.42-4.el6.i686
rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1 is needed by
mysql-libs-5.1.42-4.el6.i686
rtld(GNU_HASH) is needed by mysql-libs-5.1.42-4.el6.i686
rpmlib(PayloadIsXz) <= 5.2-1 is needed by
mysql-libs-5.1.42-4.el6.i686
Then I installed the 2nd dovecot rpm successfully but its filename indicated
it's a "test" version :
# rpm -i ./dovecot-0.99.13-1.2.el4.test.i386.rpm
warning: ./dovecot-0.99.13-1.2.el4.test.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY,
key ID 6b8d79e6
# /etc/init.d/dovecot start
Starting IMAP daemon (dovecot): [ OK ]
Q1:
Is the test version rpm of dovecot reliable? It's only half the size of
the other rpm (that I was not able to install)
Q2:
Kindly assist me to resolve the 1st rpm issue : let me know where I
can download the dependencies etc
Q3:
Lastly, kindly point me to a simple doc that tells me how to
do basic setup of dovecot & create simple mailbox accounts. I'm a
complete newbie to dovecot & postfix. Have some Linux know-how
