I have a FreeBSD 4.7 box with Postfix installed via the pkg_add -rInstall the port instead and add --with-mail-gid 65534 to the CONFIGURE_ARGS in the Makefile, or define it on the command line when you compile the port:
command - configured with no problems and works fine. Postfix is setup with user/group name 'postfix' and uid/guid 12345/12345.
I setup user/group 'mailman' with uid/guid 91 then installed mailman via 'pkg_add -r mailman'. Everything else seems to work okay, however...
Whenever I try to send a message to a list on mailman, I get the
following error (snipped a bit):
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Command died with status 2:
"/usr/local/mailman/mail/wrapper post test-list". Command output:
Failure to exec script. WANTED gid 26, GOT gid 65534.
(Reconfigure to take 65534?)
I gather the current mailman port pkg expects to be installed on a
system with Sendmail... So I think the mail-gid setting is fixed at 26 in the pkg_add script(?). Is there a way for me to customize the
'pkg_add -r mailman' command so that I can include the make option
'--with-mail-gid 65534' so that mailman works on a system with Postfix? Or is there another workaround.
make CONFIGURE_ARGS="--with-mail-gid 65534" install
That should work, I think.
I would prefer to use the pkg_add method, as it has other customizations (daemon logo, etc.) that I prefer over the source compiled version.If it's in the package, it's in the port since the package is built from the port.
