Hi Stephan, I'm traying to rebuild the RH (Centos) EL5 and EL6 RPM with the last mercurial pigeonhole 0.4.2 version, but I'm having problems with the build.

I think that I've isolated the problem outside rpmbuild context.

I've downloaded dovecot and pigeonhole mercurial versions and built dovecot with the commands:

dovecot-2.2.10$ ./autogen.sh dovecot-2.2.10$ ./configure INSTALL_DATA="install -c -p -m644" --enable-header-install --disable-static --with-nss --with-shadow --with-pam --with-gssapi=plugin --with-ldap=plugin --with-sql=plugin --with-mysql --with-zlib --with-sql-drivers --with-libcap --with-db --with-ssl=openssl --with-ssldir=/etc/pki/dovecot --with-notify=inotify --with-solr --with-docs dovecot-2.2.10$ make dovecot-2.2.10$ make install DESTDIR=/var/tmp/dovecot

after that, building pigeonhole with the commands

pigeonhole-0.4.2$ ./autogen.sh pigeonhole-0.4.2$ ./configure INSTALL_DATA="install -c -p -m644" --build=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu --program-prefix= --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --datadir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include --libdir=/usr/lib64 --libexecdir=/usr/libexec --localstatedir=/var --sharedstatedir=/usr/com --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-dovecot=/var/tmp/dovecot --with-managesieve=yes pigeonhole-0.4.2$ make pigeonhole-0.4.2$ make install DESTDIR=/var/tmp/dovecot

works fine, but if I install pigeonhole in a different path, i.e.

pigeonhole-0.4.2$ make install DESTDIR=/var/tmp/pigeonhole

I get the following error

Note that in the link command there are library paths for -L/home/jc/dovecot-2.2.10/src/lib-storage/.libs -L/home/jc/dovecot-2.2.10/src/lib-dovecot/.libs

while there is not an equivalent one for the libdovecot-lda -Lhome/jc/dovecot-2.2.10/src/lib-lda/.libs

Perhaps some problem with libtool is not generating the right library paths?

In the first case, since dovecot and pigeonhole where installed in the same path, the library was found in the installation path -L/var/tmp/pigeonhole/usr/lib64/dovecot but in the second case (the normal if building two separate rpm) the pigeonhole installation path does not contains the dovecot libaries.

I'm not a developper and am not familiar enough with libtool, so I'm not able to determine the reason of the error since the DEPENDENCIES and LIBADD definitions in src/lib-sieve/Makefile.am seems to be correct

ibdovecot_sieve_la_DEPENDENCIES =
$(plugins)
$(top_builddir)/src/lib-sieve/util/libsieve_util.la
$(LIBDOVECOT_LDA_DEPS)
$(LIBDOVECOT_STORAGE_DEPS)
$(LIBDOVECOT_DEPS) libdovecot_sieve_la_LIBADD =
$(plugins)
$(top_builddir)/src/lib-sieve/util/libsieve_util.la
$(LIBDOVECOT_LDA)
$(LIBDOVECOT_STORAGE)
$(LIBDOVECOT)

I apologize for the long message, hope you can help on this.
