Hello,
I'm still working on the SLES 10 version together with Jeremy off-list. I have
fixed much more bugs. I'll do a final report as soon as I can built all
versions correctly.
Unfortunately the qmail-toaster packages can not be distributed as installable
rpm files, because of the qmail license (http://cr.yp.to/qmail/dist.html). But
the rpm-pacges simplifies installation and maintenance at least in-house.

I have played around with pre-build packages for different SuSE
version. There I have discovered a small problem: When I install a
bunch of packages with one command (rpm -i *.rpm), it is done in the
wrong order:
This isn't how the software should be installed. Note that all of the
pages specify the correct install order.
Presently yes, but there is no good reason why it shouldn't be.
clamav-toaster needs the qmail-toaster package to be already
installed, otherwise the directories /var/log/qmail/clamd and
/var/qmail/supervise/clamd are owned by "root" instead of "qmaill".
Correct, if the order is altered then clamav will say that there is no
qmaill user.
This causes hundreds of "clamd multilog: fatal: unable to switch to
current directory: access denied" error messages appear on the screen.
Indeed
I recommend to change line 412 in clamav-toaster.spec from
"Requires: zlib >= 1.2.3"
to
"Requires: zlib >= 1.2.3, qmail-toaster"
This can be done after the next update, but I don't see the need to
put out a specific update for this. Regardless, installing with "rpm
-Uhv *" can have unintended consequences. We've detailed out the
install procedure really well in order to keep people doing it the
right way.
Thanks,
Erik
I certainly hope that this change makes it into the next release. The
new update/install script also does a single rpm -Uvh command to install
the binary rpms. This allows rpm to 'do its thing' regarding
dependencies. I think it's pretty obvious that clamav-toaster requires
qmail-toaster (duh!).
Good catch, Johannes. I for one appreciate all you've done with
improving the installation process. The only way the toaster can be
successful is to make things continually easier for the mail
administrator, which this helps to do.
