problem building on centos 8 (8.3 kernel)

[steve at keptprivate.com]

Another thought... Could I use a different build mechanism that would result in the same installation rpm? There's no reason I have to use source rpms, I'm just used to it because of qmailtoaster.SteveSent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE device------ Original message------From: steve at keptprivate.comDate: Thu, Jan 7, 2021 3:48 PMTo: Aki Tuomi;dovecot at dovecot.org;Cc: Subject:Re: problem building on centos 8 (8.3 kernel)
    Any ideas about the lsb_release error in the spec file and where that came from? I have a very vanilla centos 8 install I'm trying to bulid on. Any thoughts appreciated because I'm stuck and at something of a loss on what to try next. My first thought is to look at spec file revisions.SteveSent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE device------ Original message------From: Aki TuomiDate: Thu, Jan 7, 2021 3:10 AMTo: steve at keptprivate.com;dovecot at dovecot.org;Cc: Subject:Re: problem building on centos 8 (8.3 kernel)> On 07/01/2021 03:57 steve at keptprivate.com wrote:

 Sorry if any of this is stupid, but I'm new to building directly from the dovecot repo.

I think the file is installed under /usr/lib64/, so check

ldd /usr/lib64/libdovecot.so.0

Is there some reason you are building the rpms yourself?
