[Dovecot] rc17 Linux RPM distribution rebuild trouble.
The question is addressed to Linux RPM-packagers.
Hello!
I was trying to rebuild rc17 binaries from dovecot-1.0-1_38.rc17.at.src.rpm taken at ATrpms <http://ATrpms.net/>. The process fails with following messages:
Making install in imap-quota
make[3]: Entering directory
/usr/src/asplinux/BUILD/dovecot-1.0.rc15/src/plugins/imap-quota' make[4]: Entering directory /usr/src/asplinux/BUILD/dovecot-1.0.rc15/src/plugins/imap-quota'
make[4]: Target install-exec-am' does not require perform any command. test -z "/usr/lib/dovecot/imap" || mkdir -p -- "/var/tmp/dovecot-1.0-0_34.rc15-root/usr/lib/dovecot/imap" mkdir: /var/tmp/dovecot-1.0-0_34.rc15-root/usr/lib/dovecot/imap'
exists, but it is not a directory
make[4]: *** [install-imap_moduleLTLIBRARIES] Error 1
As I have not so much experience at RPM-packaging, so would be thankful for the ideas how to fix it?
Kind regards,
- Serge.

Isn't really realted to RPM-packaging, something has created a file/symlink earlier in the build process, try to spot that.

...I'm trying. The trouble appearing during 'make install' stage...The build process is arranged by autoconf, so for me, it makes things more complex. The RPMbuild transparenly passes to 'configure' default OS-dependent parameters, like libdir=/usr/lib , libexecdir=/usr/libexecdir , etc... So, it's hard to understand what it caused by and where should I try to fix it...

BTW, prebuild RPM-package places the same file in /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap . Here it's in /usr/lib/dovecot/imap ...

Then it's an issue with your distribution which sets libexecdir=libdir. Try building from source, you will most likely hit the same issue there.

...well, hard configure definition --libexecdir=/usr/libexec in the %build section of dovecot.spec solved the problem.
Thanks.
