Description Warren Howard 2005-10-23 08:55:21 UTC

Hi,

The "sasl" use flag for the exim only enables saslauthd support.  What about
AUTH_CYRUS_SASL support which enables "driver = cyrus_sasl" in exim.conf.  This
 provides exim with additional authentication options.  Which is a good thing. 
Can support for AUTH_CYRUS_SASL be added to the ebuild for exim please?

The ebuils I've checked are:

exim-4.43-r2.ebuild
exim-4.50.ebuild
exim-4.50-r1.ebuild
exim-4.50-r2.ebuild
exim-4.50-r999.ebuild
exim-4.52.ebuild
exim-4.54.ebuild

Regards,


Warren.

Hello,

I am wondering about the status of this bug.  Is it something that is being
considered?  It is something I would like to use.

Regards,


Warren.

Hello, anyone out there?

I'm hoping for a response on this!  A "yes we can fix this but it will take some
time, or "no - we're not doing this" or possibly "sorry, we're having some
issues with the maintenance of this package within Gentoo, perhaps you'd like to
try one of the other MTA's that are known to work and are properly maintained...".

Anything at all??

Warren.

some time this week.

should be enabled as of exim-4.60

Comment 6 Tomoaki Yamasaki 2005-12-06 20:45:21 UTC

Maybe simple typo.
"sed -e ..." should be "sed -i ...".

This should be fixed in 4.60-r1.
