[Dovecot] Cannot build rpm with mysql support from dovecot.spec
I've been playing for hours with the dovecot.spec file to build --with-mysql. The resulting RPM builds fine but when dovecot runs it does not recognize the passdb mysql statement.
I also noted that the spec file has a version of 1.0-stable and rpmbuild complains about an invalid '-' in the version.
Being a newbie in rpmbuild, can someone assist me in building for CentOS 4 on i386? standard build options but --with-mysql added.
I also tried to install it from sources and it does not work (at least for me). Being a RPM user now I have to clean what the source installation did and i have no clue where the 'make install' placed files.
BTW I am trying to build a manual (pdf, html) with the following config and im only stuck with dovecot, the other daemons are ready.
Target Server: CentOS 4 with apache, postfix, mysql, dovecot, openwebmail,clamav, clamd, php,zlib,openssh, webmin and samba. All virtual running from mysql where possible, no local users no local storage (all to the mysql db/tables).
Not wanted: postgresql, courier,vpopmail,kerberos,sasl,ssl (that might be in manual v2.0 if 1.0 ever sees the light) The system does not have X (no need for fancy graphs)
file used: http://www.dovecot.org/nightly/stable/dovecot-stable-20051102.tar.gz
RPMs Used: All RPMs that can be located in the CentOS 4 CDs so new users (like me) can do as much as needed without downloading.
Devel RPMs: All devel (mysql, pam, openssl) are installed and they are recognized at building time.
Your help will be appreciated in this task.
Thanks,

Forgot to mention that Mailwatch, SpamAssasin and MailScanner are in the package list.

There is a bug in Dovecot configure script which makes it go through clean even when --with-mysql is specified but none of needed libraries are found.
I got MySQL support working on RHEL 4 with following MySQL packages:
$ rpm -qa | grep -i mysql MySQL-devel-standard-4.1.15-0.rhel4 MySQL-shared-standard-4.1.15-0.rhel4
So those should be all you need, you can get them at:
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/4.1.html
but those are not standard RPMs in a CentOS 4 CD set. Why the difference?
