Hello.

I am trying to be careful in working through the Install document installing the courier suite on my test machine, a FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE system. I have run through these tests with courier-0.36.0 and courier-0.26.0.20011129 with identical results.

Initially I had a bunch of ./configure options, but in trying to find this problem i've commented everything but --prefix= away like this: ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local/courier \ # --without-ipv6 \ # --with-mailuser=courier \ # --with-mailgroup=courier \ # --enable-https=auto \ # --enable-softtimeout=2700 \ # --enable-mimetypes=/usr/local/etc/apache/mime.types \ # --with-ispell=/usr/local/bin/aspell

I have a happy courier-0.34.0 system running elsewhere, and I seem to recollect that at the end of the "(g)make check" step I got a happy message that the check had gone successfully. Maybe not. At any rate, I don't think I saw what I am seeing now:

Making check in module.local gmake[2]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/local/courier/courier-0.36.0.20011129/courier/module.local' ./testsuite | cmp -s - ./testsuite.txt gmake[2]: *** [check] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/local/courier/courier-0.36.0.20011129/courier/module.local' gmake[1]: *** [check-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/local/courier/courier-0.36.0.20011129/courier' gmake: *** [check-recursive] Error 1

So I have followed the Install guide and done some "detective work" and I haven't turned up much good stuff. I have looked at .../courier/module.local/testsuite and testsuite.txt and run the (apparrently) offending `cmp` command by hand to get more information:

prompt>./testsuite | cmp - ./testsuite.txt stdin ./testsuite.txt differ: char 1257, line 80 prompt>./testsuite | diff - ./testsuite.txt 80,84d79 < From: nob...@example.com < To: nob...@example.com < Subject: test of dynamic delivery instructions. < < test

I have stepped through the testsuite script with the `sh -x testsuite` output and testsuite.txt file and tried to figure out what the problem is. Right now I'm stumped and convinced that my problem is not irreproducible so I ask you, courier-users, wtf?

TIA,
