I can't reproduce this with FreeBSD 6.2. unicodemap.c is distributed in the tarball, so I don't know why it would give that error. it's fully reproducible here. note that i'm not using the tarball. rather, pulling the hg 11b13 tag clone. there, there's apparently *no* unicodemap.c included: find . | grep unicodemap ./dovecot/.hg/store/data/src/lib/unicodemap.pl.i ./dovecot/src/lib/unicodemap.pl on two separate FreeBSD 6.2 boxes (1) host w/ jail (2) standalone host doing, cd /usr/local/build rm -rf dovecot* mkdir -p dovecot cd dovecot hg clone -r1.1.beta13 http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot hg clone -r1.1.2 http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-sieve-1.1 cd /usr/local/build/dovecot/dovecot unsetenv CFLAGS CPPFLAGS CXX CXXFLAGS LDFLAGS LDDLFLAGS LIBS LD_PREBIND \ EXTRA_LDFLAGS EXTRA_LIBS ACLOCAL AUTOHEADER AUTOMAKE AUTOCONF setenv LDFLAGS -L/usr/local/lib/db46 -L/usr/local/lib/mysql -L/usr/local/lib -lpthread setenv CPPFLAGS -I/usr/local/include/db46 -I/usr/local/include/mysql -I/usr/local/include setenv SQL_LIBS -lsqlite3 clear ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local \ --sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc/dovecot \ --with-moduledir=/usr/local/dovecot-plugins \ --with-libiconv-prefix=/usr/local \ --with-ssl=openssl --with-ssldir=/var/ssh/MAIL_CERTS \ --disable-static --enable-shared \ --config-cache \ --disable-debug --enable-maintainer-mode \ --enable-ipv6 \ --with-db \ --with-mysql \ --with-sqlite \ --with-ioloop=best \ --with-sql-drivers=mysql,sqlite \ --with-deliver \ --with-pop3d \ --with-storages=maildir,mbox,dbox,cydir,raw then make yields on BOTH boxes, make all-recursive Making all in src Making all in lib make: don't know how to make unicodemap.c.

Oh, that's different then. The Makefiles generated by autotools pretty much require GNU make. Only after I make a release with make dist the generated Makefiles work with all makes.

By the way, I would have thought that it was obvious that make != gmake. Calm down please. There are many good reasons for not using the port. Dovecot is constantly releasing new betas that should be tested and it might not be feasible to wait for them to go into ports. On top of this the HG development never will make it into ports. Now the point of releasing the betas is that the users should test them. That may be somewhat difficult if the users are told to bugger off when they complain that the betas won't compile. Compile errors are actually put into the development tree from time to time (there appear to be other compile errors with this specific beta release as well) so reporting it to the list makes perfectly sense. After all the feedback comes from the users. Regards (and a happy new year), Mikkel.

I copied the port files to a new directory and changed the Makefile, e.g.: (snip) This works on FreeBSD-7 in a jail. that's good to know. thanks! (btw, what were your base JAIL buildworld make.conf specs for the dovecot-containing jail? if you can share, please email me offlist ...) nonetheless, isn't it a bit ironic -- in this thread, anyway -- after being told you're on your own for using recommended/supported procedures, and barked @ for not using the standard port, that doing something completely unsupported, which works fortuitously, especially since there are some significant differences between v109 an v11bXXX, is deemed like an excellent idea? lol. I fail to see a contradiction. Frank described one very useful method of testing a beta product derived from an existing FBSD port. I use tinderbox myself, but that is irrelevant. If the OP had asked that question on the FBSD forum, he might well have received a satisfactory response also. The OP, whom obviously is not fully aware of the build intricacies on a FBSD system -- not that I claim to be either -- wanted Timo to invest his time in building a custom product for him to test. Now that I consider absurd. I disagree with that statement. I think the OP was stating that the build instructions on the wiki never mention anything about possibly having to use gmake instead of make in a FreeBSD system. I think it was very usual information that should be added to the wiki for anybody who uses FreeBSD to build that might have the same setup as the OP. This mailing list and the wiki are support tools for Dovecot and I think we need to use them that way. Jeff
