Description:   Opened: 2004-05-17 01:42 0000
Exim ships it's own libpcre and ALWAYS links against it. So there is no need
for the libpcre-dependency.

Added support for nis, and a dependency for ypbind. maybe the
ypbind-init-script should be changed to start BEFORE exim?

Added support for passwd-lookups, they're cheap and don't use extra code, so I
made it unconditional.

LOOKUP_(N)WILDSEARCH is depreciated it's ALWAYS compiled when LOOKUP_LSEARCH is
enabled.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.




Using the mbox USE flag to enable SUPPORT_MBX is bogus. MBX isn't traditional
MBOX, but a special format used by pine and uw-imap.

I haven't removed it, to prevent exsisting installations from breaking.

libpcre is being dealt with in another bug (#31816), so I'm going to ignore
that for now. I'll loook into the rest later, but doubt it will be for 2 days
or so depending on work load. 
As a request, in future, please submit ebuild changes in unified diff format,
it saves storage and makes it easier to see what you've changed. Thanks for
making the effort though.

Removes wildsearch useflag, adds nis and passwd lookups

This patch against exim-4.42.ebuild (again) removes the useless wildlsearch
useflag. Wildlsearch and nwildsearch are automaticly compiled into exim when
lsearch is activated.

It also adds the NIS(PLUS) lookups when the nis useflag is set. The PASSWD
lookup is enabled unconditionaly, it's small in codesize and doesn't need any
special libaries or tools.

------- Comment #4 From Colin Morey 2005-01-08 06:43:54 0000 -------
The Wildlsearch and nic patch will be available in the next releasr of the
ebuild, (4.43-r2)

------- Comment #5 From Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) 2005-06-18 15:12:30 0000 -------
Looks like Colin forgot to close this bug, as I can see the nis use flag and I
cannot see the wildsearch flag in latest ebuilds. Closing, thanks.
