Hello Dovecot users,

For those of you who like to live on the edge, there is now a Debian-testing repository available with hourly updates from recent Dovecot-1.1 changes in the Mercurial repositories. It automatically releases a new set of packages if it notices any changes in any of the repositories. The packages are built with dovecot-sieve-1.1 and dovecot-1.1-managesieve included. Currently, it only provides binaries for the i386 architecture and no source packages are available. The small Debian-specific patches that are included in the official Debian packages are currently not included for this repository. Also, the packages are currently not PGP signed.

I've built this repository to obtain continuous updates on whether the
managesieve patch and package still compile and work with the latest Dovecot release. I get an e-mail if anything goes wrong during the build. I implemented the cron script right at the release of dovecot-1.1.rc1 and now that it successfully upgraded the package versions to 1.1.rc2, I decided to release the repository to the world.

Needless to say: do **NOT** use this repository for systems that need to be **STABLE**.

Usage should be similar to the backports.org repository (http://www.backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=instructions), but add the following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/ testing-auto main

Package versions look as follows: 1:<upstream-version>~auto+<build number> Current latest version: 1:1.1.rc2~auto+1

For questions, comments and requests, you can send me an e-mail.

Regards,
