[Dovecot] Version checks and API/ABI/sonames

Hi,

pigeonhole/sieve check against dovecot's version comparing to what they have been built against.

This means that whenever there is a minor version of dovecot released pigeonhole/sieve need to be rebuilt and then redistributed to users even if there is no need for it (I'm thinking of packaged versions of dovecot and dovecot-pigeonhole).

Could the checks become ABI-version aware, so that rebuilds and redistribution are kept to a minimum? Maybe Timo is already keeping API/ABI stability between minor updates, so the version checks should be against the first two version components only.

Thanks!
