If you want to try/help find major regressions, here is the ebuild that I'll commit in a few days.

yay :)

Comment 6 Jochen Schalanda 2009-11-25 17:06:14 UTC

I'm just wondering if the USE flag "exiscan" could just be removed from the ebuild. As far as I see it just fetches a useless configuration file which has been obsolete since Exim 4.50 when Exiscan-ACL was integrated into vanilla Exim.

I'd rather see a USE flag "dcc" for the activation of the DCC support (EXPERIMENTAL_DCC=yes in Local/Makefile) or "dkim" for the (de-) activation of DKIM supprt (DISABLE_DKIM=yes in Local/Makefile) in the new Exim ebuild.

I've been wondering that myself, and considering doing that.  Any help here (for testing mainly) would be greatly appreciated.

Here's my take on an ebuild for Exim 4.71. I removed the obsolete USE flags "domainkeys" and "exiscan" and added "dkim" and "dcc" for DKIM respectively DCC support.

This ebuild works fine of two of my servers (both x86).

Thanks Jochen.  I will use your suggestions and ebuild.

Ebuild added in the tree, hopefully no breakage, so we can stable this version soon.  Thanks all!
