Hi, I just downloaded the dovecot-1.2.rc4.tar.gz to do some tests. I coud compile it and generate the package with no trouble on my Slackware 12.2.0

Then as I wanted to try the patchs available at http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.2/# I downloaded them and applied at once. When I tried to compile once again I got this error:

cmd-thread.o: In function cmd_thread': cmd-thread.c:(.text+0x219): undefined reference to mail_thread_type_parse' ../../src/lib-storage/libstorage.a(mail-search-build.o): In function search_arg_build': mail-search-build.c:(.text+0x10b9): undefined reference to mail_thread_type_parse' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [imap] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory /usr/local/src/dovecot-1.2.rc4/src/imap' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory /usr/local/src/dovecot-1.2.rc4/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/dovecot-1.2.rc4' make: *** [all] Error 2

I removed the patched folder and untarred it again, but at this time I decided to apply one patch at time just to see witch one gave me the trouble. When the first set of patch ( http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.2/rev/d42a8623a008 ) was applied I got the same error.

Just to confirm it was this set of patch, I applied all the other set of patchs leaving that one not applied and the compilation went out with no trouble.

As im not a expert so I am sending this report to the list in order to get it fixed.

Best Regards, Carlos Xavier.
