that 1.0.7 is a pretty old release, and you don't have much control over what the distro maintainers choose to package.
This is the biggest problem most people face. But the freedom of the Open Source world to use whats we want is powerful.
Generally speaking, I think there are advantages (not introducing incompatibility with other software, simple dependency resolution, automatic security updates, etc.) to sticking with repo versions, unless you have a compelling reason to do otherwise. In this case, the bugfixes and improvements in quota accuracy are a good reason to upgrade.
In most cases, most people have a compelling reason, bugs (not all fixes are back ported) and needed features, especially in the ISP/ASP world where not offering X more often than not means clients can not run script Y, so that provider looses when the client votes with their wallet.
Please download 1.2.12, the current stable release, however read the release notes because some settings will be incompatible with 1.0.x. there wont be too many differences but might be some, depending on your setup.
I have moved to 1.2.12 and updated my dovecot-dict-quota.conf file, and it seems to be working great.
That's great to here :) Glad it's all worked out. Cheers
