Is it possible that this originates in the Exim upstream itself? I'm not very familiar with the whole Exim build system, and haven't tried building 4.99 myself but at a casual glance, module loading and drtables.c has had a revamp and seems to now try to dlopen() a file named "<modname>_lookup.so" for lookups (e.g. mysql_lookup.so), which is new, but lookups/Makefile still refers to (for example) mysql.so. Maybe I'm misunderstanding though.
Nope. The project build sequence results in "<modname>_lookup.so" *in a different directory* (along with .so files for any routers, transports, authenticators and other misc components which the build config has been set to build as loadbable modules. The file <modname>.so is a precursor, and they should not have been trying to use it. I think this is a mistake in the Fedora package build. However, it is a step not well detailed in Exim's documentation so I've added a bit of descriptions in EDITME file (which becomes a makefile). -- Cheers, Jeremy -- ## subscription configuration (requires account): ## https://lists.exim.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/exim-users.lists.exim.org/ ## unsubscribe (doesn't require an account): ## [email protected] ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
