Thanks Stephan, I don't want this by a specific reason, I have two 
differente packages, derived from de atrpms ones, one for dovecot and 
the other one for pigeonhole;  the problem arises when trying to rebuild 
de pigeonhole rpm, in the context of rpmbuild the installation root is a 
temporary directory that only contains the files needed by this rpm, 
then does not contains any of the dovecot files.

I've done some debug tests with libtool and seems that the problem is 
with libtool itself, while processing lib-sieve libtool does not include 
de real paths of any of the ".la" libraries on which it depends, the 
paths for libdovecot-storage and libdovecot are included while 
processing this dependencies in the case of libdovecot-lda.la it depends 
on both.

The rpmbuild is done on a system without dovecot or pigeonhole 
installed, I think that the obvious workaround is to build dovecot rpm 
and then install dovecot and dovecot-devel before rebuilding pigeonhole.

Thanks for your time.
