Hello,
today I checked out a new copy of Dovecot (and LDA) from CVS:
File: ChangeLog Status: Up-to-date
Working revision: 1.2765
Repository revision: 1.2765 /home/cvs/dovecot/ChangeLog,vI could compile them, but my findings follow:
- the problem: I copied dovecot-lda below CVS_ROOT/dovecot, the first make attempt failed with this fatal error:
make[3]: Entering directory
/var/autofs/fb02/prgdist/dovecot/dovecot/dovecot-lda/src/libsieve' /bin/sh ../../ylwrap test -f 'addr.y' || echo './'`addr.y y.tab.c addr.c
y.tab.h addr.h y.output addr.output -- bison -y -d -p addr
../../ylwrap: ../../ylwrap: No such file or directory
the "ylwrap" is actually located in the Dovecot directory, hence, one directory up, so running
ln -s ../ylwrap .
in CVS_ROOT/dovecot/dovecot-lda fixed the problem.
the wish: It would be nice, if one could compile dovecot-lda right in the CVS locations without the need to give any option, e.g. the default "dovecot" path could be "../dovecot".
the questions:
running ./autogen.sh results in:
configure.in:1562: required file ./config.h.in' not found SUBDIRS: variable DELIVER' is used but `DELIVER' is undefined
^^ Maybe the 2nd error results in that I passed "--without-deliver" to ./configure?
running ./configure results in: checking for shared library run path origin... ./config.rpath: ./config.rpath: No such file or directory done
running dovecot-lda/autogen.sh results in: configure.in:4: required file `./lda-config.h.in' not found
Neither of these error messages prevent to built Dovecot, but they does not look "correct".
Bye,
