Ilja,
I've just build and uploaded experimental debian packages for dbmail-2
deb http://debian.nfgd.net/debian experimental/
packages:
dbmail-mysql
dbmail-pgsql
dbmail-mysql-ldap
dbmail-pgsql-ldap
great
Maybe a silly idea; Would it be feasable to implement the database and
auth layers as plugins or shared libs allowing runtime selection
through the config file.
As more auth layers and database backends will be supported the
permutations of possible builds will explode, making it virtually
impossible for me to build a full set of debian packages. I'm sure
people working on packages for other distros will hit the same > problem.
you're completely right. Choosing the db and auth backends should be
done using
the configuration file.
I have some experience in writing/loading plugins
(using dlopen()), but if anybody here is a plugin guru, please lead the
way ;)
