Hi, the net-mail/maildrop ebuild uses userdb and look by default in /etc/maildrop. The problem is that net-mail/courier-imap (and supposedly any other userdb based app) looks into /etc. It makes the ebuild incompatible with them. (maildrop is from courier software and you made it incompatible by default ??) symlinking files doesn't work right (from /etc/userdb to /etc/maildrop/userdb) that is. The only solution is then to modify the ebuild and remerge it. (with --with-etc=/etc instead of /etc/maildrop) may be a dependency with courier imap to set this (if you absolutly want to put default to /etc/maildrop for a reason i don't know of) would be _very_ welcome. kang
I have updated the maildrop-1.4.0-r1 ebuild to change etc-dir to /etc from /etc/maildrop. Thanks for the report!
