Created attachment 11868 [details]
the new ebuild including patching with the fix-patch...

just copy it into your overlay dir and emerge it...

[Comment 3 Robin Johnson 2003-05-13 13:08:56 UTC]

thanks for this. I'm re-writing the qmail ebuilds soon, so is going to get included in there.

[Comment 4 Andrew Cooks (RETIRED) 2003-11-25 06:51:36 UTC]

What's the status of this?

[Comment 5 Robin Johnson 2003-11-29 01:29:46 UTC]

ok, qmail-mysql-1.03-r13 is now in place.
it _should_ work.
It's based on my qmail-1.03-r13 package.

I've integerted your patch into the latest upstream patch.

I've hardmasked it as I don't have a setup to test it out myself (my qmail setup is too production to test this out).
Please give it a whirl and report back here.

I'm going to pass your patch upstream as well.

[Comment 6 Robin Johnson 2003-11-29 23:27:18 UTC]

upstream reports the offical fix for this problem is actually included in his 1.1.9 patch, so i'll be reverting to just the 1.1.9 patch and not your extra patch.

[Comment 7 Robin Johnson 2004-09-15 02:20:20 UTC]

clearing up my bug tracking

[Comment 8 Stian Skjelstad 2005-06-28 15:46:11 UTC]

So what's happening with this bugreport now? patches proposed are from 2003 and
report is still open.

[Comment 9 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-08-19 14:39:54 UTC]

Hmmmm?

[Comment 10 Benedikt Böhm (RETIRED) 2007-06-17 11:58:41 UTC]

uhm? can we finally get rid of qmail-mysql, please? vpopmail can handle mysql quite well...

[Comment 11 Benedikt Böhm (RETIRED) 2007-09-15 10:41:49 UTC]

in p.mask now, going to be removed on 31 Sep 2007

[Comment 12 Benedikt Böhm (RETIRED) 2007-10-19 22:46:28 UTC]
