Thanks Adam, its very reassuring to know that you'll "dogfood" the update
prior to releasing to FreeBSD ports users. This is one of those high
impact updates that need it - like sendmail, samba, heimdal, squid,
nginx, apache ... ;)
Kind regards, Dewayne
PS dogfood is a peculiar term where, typically a supplier, uses what they
provide to others. As an example: I first came across the term when HP
Management wanted to demonstrate to their external customers that they
use the same services internally as supplied externally. (I could write a
short-story…)
Dewayne and The,
The dovecot and pigeonhole ports for 2.3.1 and 0.5.1 are ready to go. Larry
and I have been dogfooding them, and all the bugs I encountered in 2.3.0
seem to be fixed now.
I’m waiting for the next quarterly branch (4 days) and then the ports will
be committed. If you’d like to use them before then, you can grab them at
https://people.freebsd.org/~adamw/dovecot-2.3.1.tar.gz
If you encounter any problems, please do let us know!
There’s a pkg-message and there’ll be an UPDATING entry, but it bears
repeating here too: read https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Upgrading/2.3
<https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Upgrading/2.3> for some of the potentially
breaking changes. Merge the changes from the 2.3 conf files
carefully---Dovecot 2.3 will most likely fail to start with unmodified 2.2
conf files. I copied the 2.3 conf files anew and recreated my setup, and
you might consider doing the same thing.
