You should have instead provided a web page to the output, so that only
those who need to see it can look at it.
On another side note, if you extract the source code from a tarball, and
then edit the spec files, you don't need to tar and zip it up again. You
can simply do:
rpm -ba /path/to/spec/file, instead of rpm -ta <tarball>
Saves time. man rpm.
I compiled with the workaround and it still happens. Any ideas as to
what I can try next?
Double check that you`ve actually installed the recompiled version, and
that you have not misspelled the option when configuring.
I recompiled from source and it seems to be working.
I had first tried to compile to RPM, then install from that, but I was
foiled at every turn.
First I untarred the file, then I edited both the courier-imap.spec and
courier-imap.spec configure line(s) to look like this
%configure --localstatedir=%{_localstatedir} \
--with-authdaemonvar=%{authdaemondir} \
--enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs
and once like this:
%configure --localstatedir=%{_localstatedir}
--with-authdaemonvar=%{authdaemondir}
--enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs
(the above is one single long line)
Then I created a new tarball and gzipped it. Then ran rpm -ta against
it.
When I had the --enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs, it would
always bomb out, but if I took that out it worked fine.
I have attached my session logs so you can see whats happening.
