When trying to start courier, I get an error about not being able to find the ebegin and eend functions. From what I can deduct, it is related to it being called inside the case/esac sections (but I'm not 100% sure) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install courier on a system running baselayout-2 and openrc. 2. Ensure esmtpd is enabled in the config file. 3.

Maybe a way to fix it would be migrating to use a file in /etc/conf.d to deside which services should be started (that would also give the option to disable the webmail c**p) :)
Seems it has something to do with the sourcing of the courier config files - this is bash-ism and should be fixed anyway, but I'm not sure what's causing that the eend-function is unknown. Will investigate later.
Same issue here, masked 0.65.0, going back to 0.64.1. Watching this thread for a resolution. Anything I can give for information? (same exact failure as original poster) Nick
Hrmm, back rev to 0.64.1 has same issue, perhaps it was some other update that hosed things? Nick
I did notive my output is less clean, each service not on it's own line. But here is my result: ( I did check each command, they are there, and they run by hand) * Caching service dependencies ...

(In reply to comment #5) Noticed the same with courier 0.62.2 on amd64 arch (not working), whilst on other out of the box system with same version but with i386 there were no problems. I appreciate the discussion about shell-agnosticism and bash-ism. Noticed that changing "source" into "." in the init scripts does not help. Anybody got a clue how to fix it (or how the maintainer should fix it for us ;-P) ?? A deduced conclusion: seems courier is not used at large in the Gentoo community.
root cause of the problem is that some of the config files read by the 'source' command do contain a 'PATH=...' statement. If you comment this out, the start script finishes without errors. But I have not tested if the according module is working fine.
I've now added a workaround that saves the path variable and restores it after every source operation. Not nice, but seems to work. Please test (courier-0.65.2-r1)
I've moved my email to google mail, so I'm no longer running my own mail server. Looks good though :)
I wanted to deploy courier on a lxc host. I was in a hurry, and accidentally emerged courier-0.65.2-r1 on the host instead of the container. I was pleased to find that 0.65.2-r1 works fine on the host. After I emerged courier-0.65.2-r1 on the container, I was surprised to find out that the original problem still exists there. Soon I will deploy a fresh container from the latest Gentoo sources, and check if the problem still persists.
@Merc: Did you do etc-update after merging courier? Can you paste the output of the failing init start? If the problem persists, please re-open this bug.
It seems to work now on a fresh lxc-container. AFTER etc-update (-5). I have emerged many packages, but never had the needed to use this tool. Anyway, it works. Thanks for all who contributed, and especiall to those who fixed the ebuild.
