Description Alexander Holler 2002-12-05 15:52:01 UTC
Hi, some problems with "stable" jabber-server-n-r1: 
 
- config-x.tar.bz2 doesn't exist 
- dodir/usr/jabber-x won't work 
 
After fixing both, the ebuild has installed tons of source and objects. I 
haven't searched for the next error and tried the "unstable" jabber-server -r1 
which installed smoothly. 
 
 
Regards, 
 
Alkexander

PS: I agree that removing users and groups in postrm isn't fine. There exists 
an bug for that, I just want to say that too. ;)

As I'm currently trying to figure out how to configure jabber (using the docs 
from jabber.org) I've stumbled over the fact, that -r2 installs and enables a 
lot of the gateways like aim, msn etc. 
I would prefer to install them disabled (as the docs are saying). I would 
prefer it too, if the jabber.xml from the distribution would be installed,  
as this file contains a lot of usefull comments for the first-time 
jabber-admin.

Ok, to use the original jabber.xml with the gentoo installation of -r2, here is a sed. With that and a slightly changed /etc/init.d/jabber which uses a configuration in /etc/conf.d (with comments what those *.xml's in /etc/jabber are providing, the ebuild would be (imho) much better.  sed -e 's:./jsm/:/usr/lib/jabber/:' -e 's:./xdb_file/:/usr/lib/jabber/:' -e 's:./spool:/var/spool/jabber:' -e 's:./pthsock/:/usr/lib/jabber/:' -e 's:./dnsrv/:/usr/lib/jabber/:' -e 's:./dialback/:/usr/lib/jabber/:' -e 's:./jabber.pid:/var/run/jabber.pid:' -e 's:<update>:<!-- <update>:' -e 's:</update>:</update> -->:' < jabber.xml > jabber2.xml  Regards,  Alexander

Euhm, instead of sedding, could you please put them in a tarball, so i can get a closer look? I know the r1 is b0rked, but i really want the r2 to be really stable before releasing it to stable.. I install with the most-used transports since it's so easy to disable them, just comment the line in /etc/init.d/jabber... Other suggestions are welcome, but i'm really leaving the transports inthere.. Thanks

Closing this bug, since r2 is in stable now..
