It's basically a lose/lose situation. If you want dist.html-compliant debs for your own use or for unofficial use, that's fine. But they will never go into debian, because they are in gross violation of debian's packaging policy, and also there are already source packages for these programs in debian. I don't understand why Debian doesn't have exceptions for packages which require cross-platform compatibility. Is the concept of a piece of software which uses the same pathnames no matter where you encounter it so strange? And all of the compatibility can be achieved through symlinks, so what's the big deal? Binaries can actually be stored in /usr/bin, control files can actually be stored in /etc/qmail, the queue can actually be in /var/spool. All that Dan insists on (and it's a reasonable insistance) is that anyone can sit down at a qmail installation and say "vi /var/qmail/control/locals". That's not the big deal. The packages I did (qmail + fastforward + dot-forward) just do exactly what You describe. The var-qmail tree as result of these packages is ok. The package qmail-run is no problem, it does not have to fullfill djb's guidelines. But: a sensible installation of qmail is based on ucspi-tcp and daemontools. I do not want to have debian-packages of qmail, running qmail-smtpd out of inetd, and I would prefer doing logging with multilog, not syslog. As we know, there is no licence or dist.html covering these two projects. There is one part in 'The Debian Free Software Guidelines' that will prevent qmail from being in the main-section of debian, the non-free section is possible: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch2.html#s-pkgcopyright Integrity of The Author's Source Code The license may restrict source-code from being distributed in modified form only if the license allows the distribution of `patch files'' with the source code for the purpose of modifying the program at build time. The license must explicitly permit distribution of software built from modified source code. The license may require derived works to carry a different name or version number from the original software. (This is a compromise.

Debian GNU/Linux (potato) Packages: var-qmail
Updated Debian GNU/Linux (potato) packages for testing:
The var-qmail tree I announced on Mon, Jun 19, 2000 seems to be good.
I splitted the not yet released projects daemontools and ucspi-tcp, the
packages named so no longer contain any documentation. The man-pages are
available in daemontools-doc and ucspi-tcp-doc. Also daemontools no longer
provides a service directory or an init script. This work is done by
daemontools-run. qmail-run now depends on daemontools-run.
Beware, these debian-packages are unofficial, just for testing, please help
to get them approved by D.J. Bernstein.
o qmail_1.03-0.5_i386.deb
o dot-forward_0.71-0.2_i386.deb
o fastforward_0.51-0.3_i386.deb
o qmail-run_0.0.6_i386.deb
o daemontools_0.70-0.7_i386.deb
o daemontools-run_0.0.1_i386.deb
o daemontools-doc_0.70-1_i386.deb
o ucspi-tcp_0.88-0.5_i386.deb
o ucspi-tcp-doc_0.88-1_i386.deb
All these packages together set up qmail as mail-transfer-agent on Debian
potato.
Debian/potato users: Please test these packages and take a look if they
comply with http://cr.yp.to/qmail/dist.html and
http://cr.yp.to/qmail/var-qmail.html , they may go into woody later.

This does my single qmail package (man pages are not linked to /var/qmail/man).

My clients could come from all over the world and I have no other way than checking their poppassword to know that they are legitimite. So what You are looking for is 'pop before smtp'? There is a solution from Russel Nelson on www.qmail.org : 'relaying to any host which authenticates itself through a POP3 connection'.

I know the source packages in potato. The produced debs do not comply with
dist.html, I would not use them, e.g.: no /var/qmail/bin, nofiles replaced by
nogroup.
The license only covers distribution -- since the produced debs are not being
distributed, the license does't apply to them.
I wouldn't use them either, and I don't use them. But if you want to do a
binary distribution you're going to have to get Dan's approval to do what
you've done.
Yes, but for not wasting Dan's time, I wanted to ask this list to overlook
the packages. There are READMEs to the packages, I put in
ftp://ftp.innominate.org/pub/pape/Debian/unofficial/ . They explain how I
did follow http://cr.yp.to/qmail/var-qmail.html , respecting
http://cr.yp.to/qmail/dist.html .
Once Dan J. Bernstein wrote:
The movement of binaries is unacceptable. I don't care where they're
physically located, but they must be accessible through /var/qmail/bin.
that's why I put the binaries in /usr/{bin,sbin}/ and link into
/var/qmail/bin/.
If there is interest in having qmail in the debian-distribution, perhaps I
get Dan J. Bernstein's approval sometime.
Getting the packages into debian is the easier part, I think, that is what
lintian reports as errors by now:
