This is an ebuild for MIMEDefang 2.36 stable.

Added example init script as /etc/init.d/mimedefang-init.

mimedefang-2.36.ebuild

Added a use flag for gd to setup GraphDefang.

Created an attachment (id=17010) [edit]
mimedefang-2.36.ebuild

Removed perl -MCPAN -e 'install Date::Format' since it's installed by default.

Created an attachment (id=17014) [edit]
mimedefang-2.36.ebuild

Removed all CPAN building and replaced with appropriate Perl ebuilds. This also
means this ebuild depends on File-ReadBackwards for the Graphdefang
functionality.

mimedefang-2.36.ebuild

Added a header.

mimedefang-2.37.ebuild

Version bump, corrected startup script to shutdown mimedefang properly, ebuild
now properly works.

Created an attachment (id=17773) [edit]
graphdefang-config

Changed /var/log/mail/current to /var/log/mail.log. The graphdefang software
doesn't read metalog files properly so sysklogd is required.

Created an attachment (id=22252) [edit]
mimedefang-2.39

Version bump

the new apache ebuild use /var/www/localhost instead of /home/httpd

why is this version depend on sysklogd? I am using syslog-ng, I don't need
another syslog.
is it possible to use MIME::Tools from mimedefang instead of the CPAN version?
is it possible to define mimedefang user and group different than defang?

 I got following error during emerge:

>>> Install mimedefang-2.39 into /var/tmp/portage/mimedefang-2.39/image/ category net-mail
install: cannot stat `/usr/local/portage/net-mail/mimedefang/files/graphdefang.cron': No such file or directory

> why is this version depend on sysklogd? 

When I had tested Graphdefang with syslog-ng and metalog it wouldn't process the logs properly. I'm sure there's a workaround (maybe changing a config setting in one of the loggers). Once i figure it out I'll add it to the ebuild.

> is it possible to use MIME::Tools from mimedefang instead of the CPAN version?

I suppose you could just manually install the version that's comes with mimedefang and perl should use it even though you have the CPAN version installed. Not 100% sure on that through.

> is it possible to define mimedefang user and group different than defang?

The easiest way would be to modify this ebuild with your different group and user (changing everything that uses defang) and emerge the ebuild.

Created an attachment (id=22817) [edit]
mimedefang-2.39-r1.ebuild

Changes:
1: Now uses /var/www/localhost instead of /home/httpd
2: Removed dependency for sysklog. Tested Graphdefang with sysklog and
syslog-ng. Works fine. Metalog still doesn't work right.
3: Removed need for graphdefang-config in files directory by using sed on the
example config file.
4: Removed dependency for logrotate since stats by default are disabled.

Created an attachment (id=22818) [edit]
120_graphdefang.conf

Changed path to /var/www/localhost

I've submitted the Roaring Pengiun patch for the MIME-tools ebuild.

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36886

Incidentally, if you're wondering why this ebuild is still sitting here,
it's because we have very few devs who actually run sendmail.  I'm very
appreciative of the work that's been done on this ebuild, but I (like
several other people, I suspect) don't have the time right now to maintain
this ebuild.  Mr. Simpson, would you be willing to continue being the 
unofficial maintainer of this ebuild?

Also, here are some changes that really should be made to the ebuild:

1. Please use full dependency strings, e.g. >=net-mail/sendmail-x.y.z, in the
   DEPEND string.

2. We can't have sandbox disabled, although I see that's commented out now.

3. The useradd / groupadd stuff needs to be in pkg_preinst(), not
   pkg_setup().  The problem is that pkg_setup isn't run during a binary
   install.  Also, we're trying to standardize on using "getent group"
   and "getent passwd" instead of groupmod an id for group/password
   checks.

4. I assume the hard dependencies on sysklogd and logrotate are no longer
   needed?  A DEPEND of !app-admin/metalog would be fine, if needed.

5. Um, "gd" can't be used as a local USE flag because it's already 
   a global USE flag meaning something entirely different.

6. It's hardly urgent, but please indent your if / fi block.

There may be other things, but I have to get back to work now.

Thanks!

5. IUSE="" is inconsistent w/ the gd ? DEPEND.

Ebuild for mimedefang-2.42.  Mostly cleanups

I went ahead and broke GraphDefang into its own package.  I need it standalone
from mimedefang, so it should make the mimedefang ebuild prettier.

The graphdefang should really be an alternate package in the portage tree. 
I've broken out the gd? code from the last ebuild and created the graphdefang
ebuild and bug report.

Sorry for the delay on responding. I haven't had time to continue working on
the ebuild. The new ebuild looks nice and I like the idea of splitting off
Graphdefang.

Update to 2.49 and fix the user and group adding

Updated the build to 2.49 (didn't seem to have to change anything). Fixed it so
it would check and add the group before it checks and adds the user.

plaintext files are preferred over tar files. It's inconvenience but it help us
to quickly look at those files quickly without downoad/unpack the tarball and
sometime it may come with "extras" we don't want ;)

Please forgive the newbie - I just wanted to post something complete that
actually lets installing mimedefang right away.

Now this ebuild is located in Project Sunrise.

What's the procedure to get it into the main Portage tree? I would be glad to
continue mentaining this ebuild as I use mimedefang on a few servers so I have
sort of testing environment for that.

I have an ebuild sitting in my overlay. Unfortunaly, postfix doesn't support
milter message replacement as of 2.3 yet so I can't test it other than compile
and start it with initscript. I just commited mimedefang to the tree (without
Graphdefang and p.mask) . Please file seperate bug for Graphdefang and any bug
related to mimedefang.

Thanks everyone.
