Timo,

is this ok with you? It allows building dovecot-sieve against an installed dovecot package (if --enable-header-install additionally installs liblib.a) including sievec and sieved (needed for pysieved).

I don't really like that idea. The next thing another package wants some other Dovecot libraries and soon we'll have all the .a libs installed somewhere.

I've been thinking about making liblib a separate .so library. And maybe the other Dovecot libs a libdovecot_mail.so. But I'm not sure if this is such a great idea either.
