It isn't necessary to attach an ebuild that is the exact same (sans keywords) as the last one in the tree. In the future, just state that you copied the old ebuild to the new version number and it worked fine. Saves us time. I'll get around to doing this bump this weekend. (of course I said that last weekend too)

comment #4: Well, first of all you could try to make an ebuild for the current version.

My preferred improvement would be the init-script, it should not start up everything but be somehow configurable.

ebuild for courier

Just version bumps, the ebuild for courier-authlib uses the same remove-obsolete-macro patch file as 0.59.2, just renamed.

updated ebuild

Here is an updated version of the couier ebuild. My changes are:

* Remove obsolete PAM-patch (fixed upstream)
* Remove some other obsolete patches and modification statements
* Don't put that silly '.maildir' in skel
* Set sendmail SUID. You can use suidctl to deny that if you don't need any
  user to call sendmail (real fix for bug #99334).
* Change configuration from SSL3 to SSL23 to work with current openssl-clients
* Filter '-Wl,--as-needed' from LDFLAGS, fix for bug #170754
* replace elibtoolize with _elibtoolize to save half of the compile time
* Move html documentation in place


It's clear that there's still much to do. 
At least what I have on my plan:
* Provide a better init-script
* Disable webadmin by USE-flag
* Disable webmail by USE-flag


I don't use webmail/webadmin and LDAP, so please, other users, test this version!
Comment 10 Bernd Wurst 2008-03-07 18:36:13 UTC
the line 
* replace elibtoolize with _elibtoolize to save half of the compile time

should have been
* replace eautoreconf with _elibtoolize to save half of the compile time

Overlay tarball for courier-authlib and courier

New version. Now supports USE-flags "nowebmail" and "nowebadmin" and really respects existing USE-flag "fax".

This can also be fetched from our SVN overlay:

I've now committed a modified version of bernds ebuilds. As I know him very well, we'll try to get courier in a better shape in gentoo by me proxy-maintaining his ebuilds in the portage-tree.
