I know I'm blonde so might be silly question, but this libsystemd dependency, does this mean dovecot need it mandatory even if we do not use a systemd infected OS ? Or is it only needed if we use one of those systemd infected OS's?
My question is because our linux does not use systemd
No, systemd isn't required. It's just that previously when Dovecot was compiled with systemd it used our built-in copy of some of the systemd code, while now it links to libsystemd. Even if Dovecot is compiled against libsystemd it doesn't require actually to use it.
the github release is still missing, true?
git remote add -t release-2.3.15 origin https://github.com/dovecot/core <https://github.com/dovecot/core> #6 21.37 + git fetch '--depth=1' #6 21.81 fatal: couldn't find remote ref refs/heads/release-2.3.15
Yeah, sorry, it took a while to push to github. It had been a long time since I last finished the release myself, so I was fighting with gpg signing the release tags before pushing to github. It had such helpful error messages like "gpg failed to sign the data", "signing failed: Invalid IPC response" and finally I got to "signing failed: No secret key" (pretty sure there was) after which I gave up and signed elsewhere.
