1. /etc/init.d/cyrus still points to /usr/lib/cyrus/master whereas v3 cyrus installs a /usr/libexec/master 2. at least for me "reconstruct" aborts with a "double free or corruption", thus database upgrade is impossible, this seems to result in no other folders than "inbox" being available (and ,yes, unixhierarchysep and altnamespace are set to 0 in imapd.conf) The above points will break any existing cyrus installation. Downgrading again to v2 at least lets one access again inbox *and* all subfolders.

It quickly become apparent that it is an old problem that I had reported already in bug #604466 few months ago. After applying Debian's patch to libpcre and rebuilding net-mail/cyrus-imapd the database upgraded successfully and I was able to access my old mail through net-mail/cyrus-imapd-3.0.3.
*** Bug 637192 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I have succesfully upgraded to cyrus-imapd-3.0.5 after encountering multiple issues trying to upgrade to 3.0.4. Can people experiencing issues with cyrus-imapd-3.0.0 - 3.0.4 please retest using 3.0.5 ?
As I wrote in 604466: can confirm that 3.0.5 no longer crashes without a patch to libpcre.
