I guess you get this question every day and twice on sundays, although not on this list since ive checked the archives.
Now, the thing is, i cannot get to compile courier-imap (0.42.2, source package as distributed in debian sarge. Courier latest stable vanilla also fails the exact same way) with vpopmail (latest stable vanilla) in debian due to two things: 1.- Configure fails due to a missing /home/vpopmail/etc/lib_deps which is just not there. I 'touch' it and configure continues 2.- After doing that, it fails when linking the vchkpwd auth stuff. This happens even if i copy /home/vpopmail/lib/libvpopmail.a to /usr/lib. Im compling all this from the /usr/local/src directory with all the flags in the debian package.... let me show you: COMMON_CONFOPTS=--prefix=/usr --mandir=\$${prefix}/share/man \ --with-piddir=/var/run/courier \ --sysconfdir=/etc/courier \ --libexecdir=\$${prefix}/lib/courier \ --datadir=\$${prefix}/lib/courier \ --localstatedir=/var/lib/courier \ --sbindir=\$${prefix}/sbin \ --with-mailuser=daemon \ --with-mailgroup=daemon \ --without-socks \ --enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs \ --with-authpam \ --without-authpwd \ --with-authmysql \ --with-mysql-includes=/usr/include/mysql \ --with-mysql-libs=/usr/lib \ --with-authpgsql \ --with-pgsql-includes=/usr/include/postgresql \ --with-pgsql-libs=/usr/lib \ --without-authshadow \ --with-authdaemonvar=/var/run/courier/authdaemon \ --with-authcram \ --with-db=gdbm \ --without-fcgi \ --with-htmllibdir=/usr/share/sqwebmail \ --with-ispell=/usr/bin/ispell \ --enable-imageurl=/sqwebmail \ --with-mailer="/usr/sbin/sendmail" \ --enable-sendmail="/usr/sbin/sendmail" \ --with-cachedir=/var/cache/sqwebmail \ --with-calendardir=/var/run/courier/calendar \ --with-webadmindir=/usr/share/courier/webadmin \ --enable-userdb \ --enable-syslog=1 \ --enable-unicode \ --disable-root-check As you can see, i took away the without-vchkpw directive so that it correctly attempts to configure for vpopmail. The courier people (from their ml archives) claim it all the vpopmail's people fault, i think they can be pretty snotty but hey, its their imap server.... So, any help would be greatly appreciated....
