I ran into a problem a while back with Postfix, and that's the same answer they gave me. It turned out to be a problem with SPF. Once I deselected that, postfix compiled fine.
Ah, I think they are connected. I had a response off list that suggested adding -DPREPEND_PLUS_TO_OPTSTRING to MAKEFILEFLAGS in the postfix makefile. A google on this led me to a suggestion from Wietse that this hack is unnecessary and "Perhaps you linked Postfix with some third-party library (SSL? SASL? SQL?) that includes its own brain-damaged getopt() routine." Digging a bit deeper, I spotted a suggestion that SPF might be that third-party library, so recompiled without that option and bingo! It all works again. -- Chris Hastie _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" -- Paul Schmehl ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Adjunct Information Security Officer The University of Texas at Dallas http://www.utdallas.edu/ir/security/
