[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.2 build rpm on Centos6

[Christian Wiese]

Hi Birta,

it looks like you are having an issue with your RPM spec file.
I am not doing RPM builds at all, but it seems to me that
%{__global_cflags} is somehow not expanded.
--------%<------------------------------------------------------------
configure:4237: checking for C compiler default output file name
configure:4259: gcc %{__global_cflags} -fno-strict-aliasing  -Wl,-z,now
-Wl,-z,relro %{__global_ldflags} conftest.c  >&5 gcc:
%{__global_cflags}: No such file or directory gcc: %{__global_ldflags}:
No such file or directory Am Mon, 27 May 2013 13:07:37 +0300
--------%<------------------------------------------------------------

'gcc %{__global_cflags} ...' as seen in the config.log is of course not
valid, so you need to find the reason why it is not getting expanded.
This is clearly not an issue with dovecot itself but an issue with your
"build system".

Cheers,
Chris
