dbmail won't compile without libevent so it should be included in DEPEND. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge =dbmail-2.3.4 2. 3. Actual Results: It breaks if libevent is not installed. Expected Results: It should push libevent as a dependency and install successfully. This is the final part of the configure stage with libevent is not present: [snip] checking for mhash.h... yes checking for event.h... no configure: error: Could not find EVENT library. !!! Please attach the following file when seeking support: !!! /var/tmp/portage/net-mail/dbmail-2.3.4/work/dbmail-2.3.4/ [snip]
Oh, and version 2.3.5 is out.
http://www.dbmail.org/index.php?page=news&id=46 = DBMail 2.3.3 released = * libevent: the preforking code was removed and DBMail's server code was rewritten around the libevent library. This means each DBMail server will only run as a single process and will automatically use the best kernel facilities available to provide multiplexed connection handling.
ok will sort this out soon. didn't notice as it still dev version and I mainly added it for people to be able to test it ;)
just to update this quickly. i'll sort out the issues / upgrades for stable dbmail first since this devel version is simply not as important ;) if i get some spare time however i'll gladly sort it out ;)
i removed 2.3.X dbmail from the main tree. i will add it to my devel repo at a later point.
