var-qmail packages and binary rpms are in
ftp://moni.msci.memphis.edu/pub/qmail/var-qmail
It is absolutely necessary that you read the README and INSTALL.rpm in
that dir. In particular, the var-qmail rpm is named qmail for now
since rpm just cannot upgrade properly a package with a different name.
But the qmail rpm in this dir *is* a var-qmail package in that it
installs the basic qmail distribution as closely following Dan's
instructions as I could (it is *not* a standard rpm installation!).
The var-qmail-create packages (rpms) create the var-qmail distribution.
The packages were compiled on an RH 6.0 system, so the binaries will
not run if you do not have glibc2.
WARNING: this qmail rpm does not contain initscripts and such,
hence present users of the "memphis" rpm should just be happy with
their present system. In a few days, I will have a qmail-run rpm out,
and qmail-run together with the "var-qmail" rpm should then provide a
proper upgrade to the present memphis rpms.
Comments are welcome
