Package: dovecot
Followup-For: Bug #334180

To join the crowd with the previous poster, one thing must be cleared:

  dovecot-common/testing uptodate 1.0.alpha3-2.0.1
  dovecot-imapd/testing uptodate 1.0.alpha3-2.0.1

Going back to "testing" won't help, because it's the testing where 
this is broken in my server. Please provide fix ASAP since all IMAP
accounts are out of use currently. The /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf reads:

    # SSL ciphers to use
    ssl_cipher_list = all:!LOW

And the error in /var/log/mail.warn reads:

Oct 23 01:18:45 cante dovecot: imap-login: Can't set cipher list to 'all:!LOW': 
error:25066067:DSO support routines:DLFCN_LOAD:could not load the shared library

    that will take you all the way down to 0.99.14.  I recommend using the 
    version of 1.0alpha3 from testing instead until this gets sorted out.

    Btw, this is the problem.  -2.0.1 was a non-maintainer upload to get 
    dovecot depending on openssl 0.9.8.  Apparently the openssl maintainer has 
    compiled 0.9.8 in such a way that the engines are plugins.  dovecots login 
    process chroots and the plugins are not available in the chroot so you get 
    that error message.

    Most likely the fix will be to have openssl link everything in statically. 
    Then dovecot will magically start working again.
