Bug 105195 – Emerge of courier-imap neglects to create directory /var/lib/courier-imap

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Martin Bundgaard 2005-09-07 16:21:15 UTC]

The courier-imap package seems to neglect creating /var/lib/courier-imap,
resulting in the failure of the daemon to create the SSL connection cache
automatically (as /etc/imapd states that it should do).

The main symptom is a log entry like:

imapd-ssl: couriertls: /var/lib/courier-imap/couriersslcache: No such file or
directory

and probably a small slow down in IMAP responsiveness.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge courier-imap
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
Creating a root:root directory /var/lib/courier-imap solves the problem.

[Comment 1 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-03-04 10:57:27 UTC]

Every single courier-imap ebuild in portage has 

dodir /var/lib/courier-imap

Closing INVALID.
